Unless the law has been changed recently, there is no obligation on a debtor to pay any collection fees demanded by a debt collector.

In other words, you are only liable for the original debt with the original party. Debt collectors will demand you pay their fees, but tell them where to stick it. After all, you have no commercial deal or contract whatsoever with the debt collector, who is hired by the creditor, and is paid by them.
