I've tried calling to tell one collector my situation but they want me to "confirm" my name, address, etc FIRST or they refuse to tell me who they are, what they're calling about.  I refuse unless they can tell me first.  We're at a stand off.  I've told them not to call to no avail.  Reverse lookup shows "unavailable".  My only recourse is legal intervention.  Glad it'S AVAILABLE!!!!

At least this caller quit calling after i reported our impassable information exchange and told them to quit calling and remove my number immediately from their robo caller.

Female placing call had a VERY thick Spanish accent, therefore, I had no idea what company she represented or why she was calling.  That's why I'm putting this down as "Unknown" type of call.  She said she was calling for (my name).  BUT, she had the wrong last name.  I told her no one by that name lived here.  She apologized & said my number would be removed.  I'm not holding my breath on that one . . .

You will need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation (by law they have to go back to the original creditor to prove you owe the debt), cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (this will be the best money that you have ever invested).  Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it.  Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter.  You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to.  Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment.  If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt, and we would all be the richer for it.  Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front):  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

Everything else you need to know follows including at least two or more federal and state agencies where you should report their criminal activities.

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and (this is the important part) that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.  

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.  If and when you get that letter you should immediately send that debt validation letter by certified, return receipt mail.

First, you should make a complaint at this Federal Agency, and while there you should also read up on how debt collection is supposed to work as well as what your rights in this matter are: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.
