According to Inside Arm, which is a publication by and for the Debt Collection Industry. Brad Pitt is developing a true story in series form about an ex felon who is trying to turn his life around by working as a debt collector in the debt collection industry and finds it fraught with perils and not so dissimilar from the world he is trying to leave.
The series will be called “Paper,” and is based on an essay published in the New Yorker in 2010 titled “Pay Up.” That story took a critical look at the life of an ex-con who owns a debt collection agency in Buffalo that works older payday loans.
Yes, many debt collection companies are small firms as the article points out, many sub contracting for larger companies. There is no question that while the debt collection industry has cleaned up somewhat, it never ceases to amaze me the stories that I hear from consumers and prospective clients of the abuse that still exists. Just prior to the writing of this article I heard a story about a debt collector call center threatening to call the consumer every hour between 8am and 9pm.
