Has IQ Data ever used abusive or profane language when speaking with you on the phone? If so, IQ Data may be violating your legal rights. Stop the harassment.

In other words, debt collectors must adhere to a certain set of rules when they are pursuing consumers who owe money. If a collector violates the FDCPA, you can sue the collector in court.
