    I would try reporting them to the better business bureau. And get the name and employee number of the people that call you.

    Telling them on the phone to do anything has no effect.

    Write a letter to them to tell them not to contact you again on this matter. They will or should not contact you unless they are going to take you to court.

    Also in writing ( don't accept or offer to pay without knowing what it is) demand proof of debt, again telling them over the phone is a waste of time.

    They can not garnish any pay without a judgement thought he court
