Notice that nowhere does it say -what- the debt collectors said. It only says they contacted family and friends.

They do that to try to get in direct contact by tricking the family and friends into giving better contact info.

Yes, debt collectors are rude and often unethical... But I have little pity for people who try to avoid them. The problem is not the debt, but the avoidance of it.
