BECKLEY -- A Raleigh County woman is suing three companies for debt collection harassment.
Rhonda F. Hoover filed a lawsuit Feb. 14 in Raleigh Circuit Court against Wells Fargo Bank, National Assocation and Sentry Credit Inc., citing violations of Consumer Credit and Protection Act, Computer Crime and Abuse Act and Telephone Harassment Statute, as well as infliction of emotional distress and invasion of privacy.
