📈 Galaxy International Purchasing, LLC is a debt buyer, not a traditional debt collection agency. This means they buy charged-off debt from original creditors and then attempt to collect the money for themselves. If you’re being sued by Galaxy, they claim to own the debt and are not collecting it for someone else.
💳 Galaxy typically acquires defaulted debt for pennies on the dollar and then either collects directly or hires law firms to file lawsuits. They often target consumers who may not be aware of their legal rights or who mistakenly ignore the lawsuit, leading to a default judgment.
