(1) It is unlawful for any person to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that the form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of the consumer is participating in the collection or in the attempted collection of a debt that the consumer allegedly owes the creditor, when in fact the person is not so participating.
Any person who violates this section shall be liable to the same extent and in thesame manner as a debt collector or collection agency under section 5-16-113 for failure to comply with this article 16.
This section shall apply if the person supplying or using the forms or the consumerreceiving the forms is located within this state.
