Who’s Calling from 866-654-5605?
If you’ve been getting calls from 866-654-5605, it’s likely from Phillips & Cohen Associates, a debt collection agency. While they have the right to contact you about a debt, they must follow the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), which protects consumers from harassment and misleading tactics.
Are They Violating Your Rights?
✔ Too Many Calls?
Debt collectors can’t overwhelm you with repeated calls or contact you at odd hours. If they’re calling before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m., that may be illegal.
✔ Using Harassment or Threats?
They aren’t allowed to intimidate, threaten, or use abusive language to pressure you into paying.
✔ Not Sending Proof of the Debt?
If you request it, they must provide written proof of the debt within five days of their first contact.
✔ Talking to Others About Your Debt?
They can’t discuss your debt with anyone except you. The only exception is to ask for your location, and even then, they can’t mention why they’re calling.
✔ Lying About What You Owe?
Some collectors misrepresent the amount owed or threaten legal action they won’t take. If this has happened, it could be a violation.
