The entire industry of debt collection is literally scum. Debt can be sold to these parasites at any point in a transaction with a company. During my college days, an apartment complex tried to add on various move out fees when I didn’t renew. Despite being in active dispute with the complex about the fees, the complex ended up sending the fees to a debt collector. Fortunately I was able to reduce the amount to an agreeable state and it never reported to the CRA. Still have clean reports to date.
