The debt in question is based fraudulent charges on a department store charge card in XX/XX/XXXX, a card we never used. We had just returned from living XXXX for XXXX years. I thought this account was closed. It is unclear how our account information was stolen, but it was. When we saw the charges on our bill, we claimed they were fraudulent and we denied the charges. XXXX XXXX agreed at the time soon thereafter. My credit report in XX/XX/XXXX listed the debt as " uncollectible due to fraud ''. In XX/XX/XXXX. Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc. began to call me and this has continued to the present day. Every time they call I tell them clearly : 1 ) The charges are fraudulent ; 2 ) The department store agreed they were fraudulent ; 3 ) I will not ever make a payment 4 ) Do not ever call me again. My number is on the national do not call list. In the past few months I am now receiving XXXX or XXXX calls per day from people identifying themselves as from Portfolio Associates, but all with different phone numbers so it is impossible to block. This has moved well beyond annoying and is now harassment.
