American couple сalls ‘WWJD’ offensive in class-action suit

A Minnesota couple has filed a federal class-action lawsuit against a debt collection agency for putting the phrase "WWJD" on its collection letters, reports Charisma News Online.

In late 2008, Mark and Sara Neill of Becker, Minn., received letters from Bullseye Collection Agency to recover an $88 debt. The letters included "WWJD"—an acronym that typically stands for "What Would Jesus Do?"—in the right-hand corner.

In court documents, the Neills said Bullseye's use of the phrase was offensive and harassing. They claim the motto condemns debtors as sinners and thus violates the federal Debt Collection Practices Act, which prohibits abusive or harassing collection tactics.
