Unless it discloses private, confidential, or proprietary information about the debtor and did not slander or libel them, it would not necessarily be a violation of criminal law to do so.

Are you still responsible for a debt if your parents assume responsibility for that debt?

Minors cannot legally contract for a debt. Only their parents/guardians can assume that responsibility. So, your parents ARE responsible. On the other hand, if you are legally an adult and contract for debt - and your parents 'assume' responsibility for it -there would have to be legally binding paperwork naming them as the debtors in lieu. Simply giving their word is not sufficient, and you would remain responsible.

There are specific laws in place to protect consumers from harassment from debt collectors. It is illegal for debt collectors to contact you at work if your employer does not allow this. Record all contact by debt collectors just in case you have to take them to court in the future. Also, I advise you to check online for laws in your state that protect you against harassment.
