Don't just "try to dissuade them" from calling
your mother. TELL them to stop, as per your rights
under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Notice how they say "report this to an attorney"?
Which is *not* the same as stating that they *will*
actually sue? That is because they are trying to
intimidate you, without violating the law against
explicitly threatening legal action that they *don't*
really intend to take.

Read our *Collection Agency FAQ*, which you can
find in the *Credit Problems* section (the link is
at left.)

Good Luck.
