I have people calling me, for a person with the same name, who used to live in my town, now they google the guy's name and my info comes up, and once you square it with one of these scum bags, they sell it to another, and it just goes on and on.  I not only get phone calls for this guy, I also receive his bills in the mail, to include his child support invoices, collection agencies, and even correspondence from the IRS.  However, its the phone calls that bother me the most, they call at all hours of the day and night.

I have found the answer to all these annoying calls, it's called the Call Blocker, and it works great. I was looking for the solution to these phone calls, for years, and this is the best solution I have found yet. I bought mine on ebay, and it works like a champ.  

Here is a link with the description for the Call Blocker.

Debt collectors are required by law to identify themselves clearly and not leave mysterious messages. The people who call from this and many other numbers leave only vague messages about getting in touch with them to resolve an unspecified matter, and they do not identify the person they are trying to reach. Nor do they identify the company they work for. (Wasn't that hard to find a company name, though: CKS Financial, a company known for acting this way)

As such, these people are shady at best and criminals at worst.

I'll ask again--troll much??

Over 450,000 people in this country are debt collectors. They are normal people. Why avoid a debt collector? Most people that owe a debt want to pay it in a manner they can afford. If you cannot agree on terms or you do not want to pay for any other reason, it does no good to avoid contact. The collector has no idea what your situation is until you tell them and you may be surprised with what they are willing to do to HELP you. If you tell a debt collector you will not or cannot pay, they usually will not want to waste their time calling you and look for other options instead. Debt collectors are normal people despite the inflated reputation the media has given them from abusive practices by a few bad apples. I would hate to judge every athlete by the actions of one cheater, or every teacher by the one who had illegal relations with a student.

A guy introduces himself as Mr. Thompson with "an important matter to discuss with me."  It's clearly a credit collector.
