    No, US debts are reported by social security number and not cross referenced with foreign debts. Unless the debt is humongous, a German creditor is not going to go through the expense of hiring a US lawyer to sue you on a US court.

    Possibly. Foreign debts usually do not appear on U.S. credit reports. However, a foreign company can sue you in the United States for the unpaid debt and, if they are successful, then the judgment against you by the court in the U.S. will appear on your credit report here.
