Fair Debt and Collection Practices

Here's a chuckle for you.  Have you heard the one about the broker/owner who was so incensed at one of their top teams deciding to leave the brokerage that they prepared the final invoice and FILED a lawsuit to collect it the same day they presented the invoice for payment!? 

You would think that somehow that was a violation of Fair Debt and Collection Practices - but - it's not my business.

Unbelievable?  Absolutely true.  Any other tales of moronic behavior out there that you can share?
