A collection agency cannot seize a bank account period. ALL SS benefits are exempt from creditors. A collection agency cannot threaten to take your property nor do they have the power to do so. They can inform you that the account is being referred to a collection attorney who can pursue legal action. Be that as it may, your bank accounts are safe.
