They had all of my information, but I am not stupid! They were AMERICAN! They were very rude and tried very hard to convince me that they were not debt collectors but laywers giving me a chance to settle the debt. Scammers!! Do not worry yourself with these people they are full of [***]!

Not true. You can not be arrested for owing money. There is also a statute of limitations on debts and on criminal cases.
Two groups pull this kind of thing, scammers and junk debt buyers. It's called junk debt because the only way they can collect it is by intimidation, which is a violation of the FDCPA and a scam in itself.

They have to send you notice in the mail so you can dispute the debt and ask for validation. If they don't, treat them like a scam. Check your credit reports to see if they are on there.
