I started receiving phone calls from this number about 6 weeks ago. Stating that I owe a water bill from a previous address since 2003 in the amount of $152.00. I told him that I moved from that address over 12 years ago but he kept insisting that I still owe the bill and if I don't pay it, they will deduct it from my social security check. As of Saturday, October 26th. I received another phone call and He, I guess whomever a Mr. O'Connor left a message and said that if I didn't call him by 10/31//2012 the money will be deducted from my social security check The extension he left is 5514. I am sick and tired of these calls.

Contact the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and retain a consumer law attorney. Threatenening to "deduct" an unvalidated debt (they could not do that even if it were validated, which it is not, because the debt is beyond the SOL and unenforceable) is a violation of the FDCPA.
I work for a debt collector and I just received a call from somebody at this number. I couldn't answer but he did leave a message. He said it was REGARDING Municipal Court of Atlanta (not that he worked for them) and a friend of mine. He said my friend's name and he knew my name. So that was not misrepresentation but that was 3rd party disclosure on a voicemail that he knew was not the right party contact. As always I look up numbers I don't know and came across all of these complaints. I'm going to let my friend know about the message but I am going to file a complaint against them as well.
