Can my credit card debtors take my Social security check to satisfy my debts? I was laid off my job a year ago and with unemployment I was able to pay the minimum payment on my credit cards. in July 2008 I could no longer continue to do this. I wrote/called each creditor and explained and they continue to call me almost every other day. I explained to them that I am 68 years old and disabled. I only get $800 a month to live on and have medical bills that I must pay. I own nothing of value. what can they do to my Social Security check as it is the only income I have. I am sorry I have come to this but it is reality. thank you
