* * *
Congress enacted the FDCPA "to eliminate abusive debt collection practices by debt collectors" and "to protect consumers against debt collection abuses." 15 U.S.C. § 1692(e). To that end, § 1692c(b) of the FDCPA, titled "Communication with third parties," provides that— 15 U.S.C. § 1692c(b). The provision that § 1692c(b) cross-references—§ 1692b— governs the manner in which a debt collector may communicate "with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information." 15 U.S.C. § 1692b. The FDCPA thus broadly prohibits a debt collector from communicating with anyone other than the consumer "in connection with the collection of any debt," subject to several carefully crafted exceptions —some enumerated in § 1692c(b), and others in § 1692b.
