More details to this question:
The debt collection agency threatened to take away my federal student loans for a credit card debt that is 4 years old. They also said the amount owed was 3900 dollars, but the amount was 879 dollars when it was sold to their agency. What kinds of actions can I take over this?

If you believe the collection calls were abusive of your rights, you should contact a local consumer rights attorney to discuss your complaints against the agency. There are various consumer protections statutes, both federal and state, under which suit maybe brought for violations of your rights.
