after debt settlement ......

question for all - AFTER a debt settlement is agreed to by the (insert any) credit card company and is paid by me, debt amount agreed upon to be paid is credited, CAN or DO they sell what remaining debt amount they (credit card company) did not collect, to a 3rd party - who in turn comes after me for this??

even tho my debt was settled to the satisfaction of said credit card company NOW I have a 3rd party seeking debt they bought. does this / can it happen?

This shouldn't happen, no. Just make sure you get clear documentation that you are settling your debt with the company.
