Yes. Their receivables will be sold to someone. That someone (assignee) will now own the debt from the assignor and will have all of the same legal rights of the assignor. This new group will then look to you, the debtor, to make good on your original contract with the assignor. If you do not they then come come after you just as if they were the original creditor.
