Does the FDCPA apply to payday loans?

Question: Does the FDCPA apply to payday loans?
Answer: The FDCPA applies to payday loans when a third-party debt collector is handling collections for the debt. However, if the original lender or the lender’s collection department is collecting for the debt, then the FDCPA doesn’t apply.
