3. She should sue Bank of America -- TREBLE DAMAGES!
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (federal regulation)

What Collectors Cannot Do
Say they are representing an attorney.
Tell you that legal action will be filed against you.
Call before 8:00 AM and after 9:00 PM in the time zone where the debt is located. In other words, if you have given your mobile/cell phone number and happen to be traveling outside of your time zone, the time zone where you live – not where you are – must meet these time restrictions.
Use obscene language and/or shout at you.
Call repeatedly to annoy or harass you.
Talk about your debt with anyone (such as a relative).
Inaccurately tell you the amount you owe.
Call you at work if you inform them that your employer does not allow you to take such calls.
