It means they buy debt. Let's say you're in debt for 10,000 bucks to revenue canada or due to a student loan. The government will do what it can to get the money back. If they're unsuccesful after a point that account basically will go on a sort of auction block. Agencies like this one will step in, get the clients information (name, number, how much they owe and so on) and pays off the rest of the debt so the government gets it's money back. It's then THEIR responsibility to get the money back from the person. It's kind of a sketchy practice, technically legal, but a lot of collection agencies don't have the same rules and standards the government does and will call over and over, will attempt to contact you at your place of work or on relatives phones and so forth. It's honestly real close to loan sharking, they don't threaten to break your kneecaps generally but they still exist in this sort of grey area in the law and often have little issue stepping over the line once in awhile. For example, another person I saw mentioning this number on another site said they had called his 12 year old daughter's cell at 2 in the morning asking for him...they'll basically make the peoples live AS much a nightmare as they possibly can without acting full out criminally...
