Americollect, Inc. is on the receiving end of a proposed class action filed by a New Jersey consumer who alleges the defendant sent him a debt collection notice that failed to properly identify the creditor to whom his debt is owed.

The plaintiff claims he received a letter from the defendant in June 2018 regarding a debt for medical services received in 2016 from University Radiology at Robert Wood Johnson. According to the complaint, the letter violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act in that it failed to “identify by name and label any entity as ‘creditor,’ ‘original creditor,’ ‘current creditor,’ ‘account owner,’ or ‘creditor to whom the debt is owed.’”
