My boyfriend received a call from Esser James and Assoc. stating that they were trying to collect on a debt I owed them. He went into detail on when I last paid this supposed debt. My boyfriend got the info and called me right away. " XXXX XXXX @ XXXX ''. I called the number but XXXX XXXX was in a meeting. The guy that answered pulled up my account # XXXX. He explained how I needed to pay the debt owed and when I questioned who he was he stated " his clients would get paid regardless and I would be paying thousands in legal fees '' I stated I wanted something mailed to my address and told him I had never heard of this company and that I have my credit monitored and there is nothing on my account by this name.He laughed at me and said " lady either was you'r going to have to pay you either work with me or suffer the consequences. I told him I was n't going to be intimidated and he said if I felt I was being intimidated why do n't I hang up. So I did. This company is harassing friends and associates of mine claiming to know all these details about me and I need to know how to stop them. I did have bad debts but they 've since been paid and as I mentioned I do credit monitoring now as a result. Please advise how I can get them to stop calling me or at least prove they 're legitimate.
