CU Recovery, Inc. Debt Collection Complaint

CU Recovery, Inc. Debt collection department,

Communication tactics Threatened to take legal action Missouri

My wife co-signed on a car loan for her son. Her son stopped paying on the loan and the car was re-possessed. We received a letter about a week ago from a collection agency named CU recovery, from Wyoming, with an amount to be paid. My wife contacted the agency and was told to try to get a loan to pay off the balance, and if we could not get a loan, they would work with us to resolve the account. Today, my wife contacted the agency, and was told that we had one hour to figure out how to pay for the debt, otherwise they would sue her and garnish her wages. My wife contacted me at my work and told me what was happening. I then contacted several lawyers for advise, as well as researching online what our rights were. I told my wife to contact the agency, and inform them that we were in contact with a lawyer, the agency then said we have one day to pay or they will start to garnish wages. They also said that we have a credit card with enough credit to cover the balance and need to pay now with that.
