I received a call from this number about an old payday loan. The rep was very difficult and demanded that I pay or I would be arrested. I called the FTC and they said these debt collectors have to validate the debt under law and I should not pay.

Received a call from this number. Answered the call in which the guy was a complete JERK!!!!! Asked for someone's name and told him that there was no such person at this phone number. He asked again if I knew that person and told him NO, we just got the new number. He then asked when did we receive the new number and had to tell him 3 weeks ago. He then stated that he would let the local authorities know and hung up on me before I could tell him to stop calling this number. The "JERK" had a slight twang in his voice and talked super fast.

No!
This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.
ABC News released an investigative report on this scam in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:

They said I would have a warrant issued for my arrest for $900.00 from EZ Corp.
Is this true/
