Can a collection agency take money from an annuity checking or savings acct without your permission?
In law gets an annuity check each month and thinks this collection agency is going to get her government check. Can this happen?
If the collection agency first gets a court judgment, they can attach bank accounts. They cannot directly intercept a Social Security check.

They would need a court order in order to do so, very unlikely that they would attempt to get one.

If she owes money to the government they probably will try to take it. I’ve heard of one branch of the government handing you a check and the other taking it away, meanwhile a third branch wants the money and demands to know where it went.
