    If you did not have it done, it is simple you deny owing them the money.
    You require that they communicate with you in writing only ** how do you know it is not a phone scam.
    You send them a letter, I send two, one regular mail, one certified, telling them it is not my debt, and they have the wrong company. And that they need to send proof of debt is available.

    You also refuse to talk to them on the phone and require all requests be done in writing.
