These people called my daughter's home, my ex wife, and who knows who else. They threatened to file suit if I did not return their call within an hour. When asked how they got these phone numbers the said they they were listed as contacts. I told them they were never listed as contacts. They alleged that I owed Verizon money for service 12 years ago and they had punched the debt.
A woman identifying herself as "Amber" claimed to be with a company called "Legal Document Delivery", and said she was trying to reach a family member in conjunction with a civil complaint against them. "Amber" was pretty creepy, as is the idea that somebody can somehow get my cell phone # and use it to try to reach (and threaten) a family member of mine.
UPDATE: After challenging "Amber Smith" and calling her scam out I have not received anymore calls. Maybe all you have to do is tell her that she's full of #$% and the harassment stops.

Want you to call them back, scam to try and reopen an old debt. If you call them back they say you attempted to contact them to negotiate and the seven year clock starts all, over don't fall for it.
Sketch-[***] collection company trying to collect a 13 year old $70 verizon bill. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS PEOPLE! They claim to be filing a "civil complaint." (Oooh scary!) I know this charge fell off my credit report a looooooong time ago and I don't have to pay a dime.
They called my parents too and scared them as well with their "civil complaint" BS.
