A Florida consumer alleges Vance & Huffman violated federal debt collection laws.

The plaintiff additionally claims Vance & Huffman unlawfully:
- Left voice messages for consumers without identifying itself as a debt collector calling to collect a debt;
- Failed to provide a mandatory validation notice within five days after initial communication was received by consumers; and
- Created a false sense of urgency by failing to identify itself as a debt collector in its calls to the plaintiff and proposed class members.
