Yeah, they are making a profit..

But they are not "making money off the debtor" if there is no interest paid
to the collector, because the debtor is simply paying off the debt that he
always had. The collector is making serious money off the original
creditor, who can't be bothered collecting the money himself or taking it to
court...
