News Rules to Govern Debt Settlement Companies Video

http://www.cambridge-credit.org -- Since the start of the recession in 2007, the Better Business Bureau reports that it has received more than 3,500 complaints regarding the debt-settlement industry, reinforcing the unfortunate fact that many people who seek assistance from debt-settlement companies never receive the services they so desperately require.

In an effort to protect consumers from unscrupulous debt settlement firms, the FTC recently introduced groundbreaking new rules to govern the industry's practices. In announcing the regulations, FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz and Vice President Joe Biden noted that many debt-settlement companies use "a business model based on deceit," and pledged to enforce the new rules aggressively.
