If your roommate was served with some legal process papers, most likely under the law you were "subserved" with the process where to complete the process you will be mailed the paper work as well. I suggest that you carefully read the paper work that your roommate received and after review you consult with an attorney that practices in the area of debt collection law representing consumers such as you.
What the debt collector did via his or her process server regarding the subservice is authorized under the law of all states in this country.
