in effect§ 5-78 Deceptive Forms.
It is a deceptive and unconscionable trade practice for any person to design, compile and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating.
