    Can credit card companies sue you if you're unemployed and have no income?
    I owe $4k (I don't know how it got that high) to citicard and they harass me about it call and hang up. I think they sent it to a lawyers office, I have no income at the moment. Can they sue me if I don't have any income. I have a wife and two kids, the only person working is my wife and we can barely get by monthly
