A class action filed in Maine against Viking Client Services claims the agency called an alleged debtor and left a voicemail without stating that the communication was from a debt collector. Additionally, the suit says, the defendant’s message did not say that any information obtained through the call would be used for the purpose of debt collection. Under the terms of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), it is illegal for a collector to fail to state the nature of its business in messages left to reported debtors. The proposed class includes individuals in Maine who received a voice message from Viking Client Services within the last year in which it was not disclosed that the call was related to a consumer debt or that information obtained through the communication would be used for collection purposes.
