Debt collection companies are regulated. I am sure they will be entirely professional in their dealings with you. It may well be possible to negotiate a large reduction in the debt as your former friend would have sold the debt at a discount.
It sounds a very strange thing to do.

There are companies that buy debts but they usually require evidence of the debt and a contract. You don't normally have paperwork with debts between friends.
