(a) A lender may not take an assignment of earnings of the debtor for payment or as security for payment of a debt arising out of a consumer loan. An assignment of earnings in violation of this section is unenforceable by the assignee of the earnings and revocable by the debtor. This section does not prohibit an employee from authorizing deductions from his earnings if the authorization is revocable.
(b) Notwithstanding the prohibition of subsection (a) of this section, a lender may take an assignment of commissions or accounts receivable payable to the debtor for services rendered for payment or as security for payment of a debt arising out of a consumer loan.
(c) A sale of unpaid earnings made in consideration of the payment of money to or for the account of the seller of the earnings is deemed to be a loan to him secured by an assignment of earnings.
