Yes they can. They don't necessarily sell loans based on whether you default or not.

Their business model may no longer be sustainable (how topical!) so they may want to get as much cash as possible now (to service their own debt) and sacrifice receiving the full amount from its debtors in the future.

Sorry mate. All this means is that you owe the debt to the new creditor i.e. the company that bought the loan off the people who gave you the loan in the first place. You're still in debt and must continue to make the payments!
