Product: Debt collection

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX appears to have sold my credit card debt to another company DNF Associates. I was never contacted about the debt instead they contacted my brother and sister in law repeatedly via calls and text messages asking if it was me and discussing the debt with them and threatening to take me to court. I filed a complaint with the XXXX  against XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX because first of all the debt that they are claiming that I owe is over the credit limit that I had been given and they never contacted me. During the time that the charges were accrued on that account I had lost my job ; my daughter was in and out of XXXX  and someone that I had trusted wrote me a bad check which caused other issues. I requested proof of the debt to ensure that no one had used the card without my knowledge and they have declined to provide me with that information. The fact that no one contacted me did a search for my family and started contacting them discussing this debt with them and threatening to take me to court is ridiculous. I have copied and pasted the XXXX   response that I did get from them.
