Frew v. Van Ru Credit Corp.

Woolfolk v. Van Ru Credit Corp.
783 F. Supp. 724 (D. Conn.1990). Debt collector used abusive language to threaten and intimidate consumer. The validation notice that the debt collector provided to the consumer was vague in its direction of how to properly dispute and request proof. The consumer was unable to provide sufficient evidence that the defendant continued to collect the debt before providing validation. With respect to actual damages, even a single technical violation of the Act is sufficient to impose liability, and permits an award of statutory and actual damages pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1692k.

381 F. Supp. 2d 766 (N.D. Ill.005). Consumer believed that the debt collector’s settlement offer was misleading, but debt collector clearly stated that the settlement offer must be received by a specific date.
