I know a family that was harassed for contact info on the wife's recently dead mother, even after they were told she was dead.

I know a family that gave the address/contact info for the funeral home when the call came between the death and the funeral.........no calls ever occurred again.

I get a call every morning from a collection agency out of California asking for my mother-in-law. They've been told in writing and verbally that she no longer lives with us, is in a nursing home in Texas, is on full disability and has full-blown Alzheimer's, congestive heart failure, end stage renal failure and diabetes. They still want me to pass a message to call them.

I'm at my wits end on dealing with this particular company. They don't care about the laws, we've sent them cease and desist letters, have complained to the FTC, the State of California and the Better Business Bureau and they still continue to call.

The fact she's dead isn't really germane. her estate still owes the debt.
