Find out who actually owns the account.
A collector, servicer, and debt owner are not always the same company. That affects what proof you should ask for.
Possible role: Third-party debt collection agency and collection servicer
Public business and court records describe RPM as a debt collector. A federal court order called it a licensed agency that collects debts owed to someone else — pointing to a collector working on behalf of others, not the owner of your account.
-
Do not assume RPM owns the debt; ask it to identify the creditor the debt is currently owed to and whether RPM is collecting for that creditor.
-
Ask for validation showing the creditor, account number, itemized amount, current amount, and original creditor if different.

Start with the facts you can check.
- Check whether the account was sold or merely placed for collection, because that affects who can recall or correct the account.
- If the original creditor claims the balance is resolved, request that confirmation in writing.
Confirm the account first.
Even a real collector can have the wrong person, wrong amount, old debt, duplicate placement, or incomplete records.
- The collector name, mailing address, phone number, and website on the letter you received.
- Who the original creditor was, who owns or placed the account now, the account number, balance, and date of last payment.
- Whether the debt may be too old for a lawsuit in your state before you pay or promise to pay.
- Whether the account appears on your official credit reports from AnnualCreditReport.com.
- Whether this looks like the kind of account Receivables Performance Management commonly handles: Telecom balances, Media accounts, Utility accounts, Bankcard and retail-card accounts.

Does RPM own the debt or collect for someone else?
Do not assume RPM owns the debt. Court records describe examples where RPM was collecting accounts tied to original creditors, so use the validation notice to confirm the creditor name, current owner if different, amount, and dispute instructions.

How should I verify an RPM contact or payment request?
Verify the company name, address, phone number, creditor, amount, and dispute process in writing before paying. RPM's current homepage states that accounts contacted by RPM have since been closed in its office and that consumers will no longer receive RPM communications, so treat any new RPM-branded payment demand with extra caution.

Can I dispute or request validation from RPM? What about fax disputes?
Debt collectors generally must provide validation information, including the creditor name, amount, and dispute instructions. A Seventh Circuit case involving RPM discussed a dispute faxed to an RPM number that RPM had stopped monitoring, so use the dispute method listed on the current validation notice rather than relying on an old fax number.
