Lanier Collection Agency & Services, Inc. is the defendant in a proposed class action out of South Carolina that alleges the company sent the plaintiff a collection notice in which it unlawfully failed to “clearly and concisely” identify the woman’s original creditor. The case alleges the supposed non-disclosure violates the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDPCA), as the plaintiff, i.e. the least sophisticated consumer, could be left unsure as to which party payment should be made, as well as on whose behalf the defendant was trying to collect the debt.
