<human>: I have been contacted by a debt collections agency both at work AND at home regarding a debt owned by my employer.

Long story short, I was asked by my boss to send a purchase order to a company we had done business with in the past.  He was not satisfied with the services provided by the company, and the charges have been in dispute ever since.

Fast forward to a month ago- I get a call at work from a collection agency threatening to sue me personally to recoup money owed because I sent the purchase order.

I informed the agency at that time that I am just an employee of the corporation which the services were billed to, and that I have no personal stake in the company.  I explained that I am only an administrative assistant who was asked to forward a purchase order.  I asked them to stop contacting me.

Then I received a letter AT HOME from the agency, again listing my name as among the people being held responsible for the debt.  It was postmarked the same day as the phone call I got at work.

I have since learned that they did the same to my boss, who also has no personal state in the company.   Since then he has received no fewer than 5 harassing calls from the agency, threatening to sue him personally.

For the record, the company i work for is an large-ish publicly traded corporation with a central billing office and legal affairs department.  The debt collector was informed of this.

Today, however, a letter arrived at my workplace addressed to me personally, and to my boss.  It states that they are now in the process of evaluating our current assets and liabilities to determine collection options.

Can they do that?  I understand that the collection attempts probably don't fall under FDCPA protections because they relate to a business debt, but there again- how can it related to a business debt when I have no personal stake in the business?  

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
