Then they just stopped calling because we would just hang up or not answer.

Comments
They may be getting information from fake "payday loan application" websites, or just trolling the net looking for information they can use to target victims. Harassment, particularly at work, and use of obscenities, is commonly reported.
Since they are hiding overseas, US authorities can't do much, but FBI, FTC, and state AGs will confirm it's just a scam.
Do NOT act like a victim who might be fooled or pressured into paying. That will just result in more harassment if they think you will pay them.
If you get their number, some complaints report that harassing them back may work.
Or just ignore them.
In any case, ignore the emails. They are intended to locate suckers who respond, to target with calls.
Or file a complaint with Google to shut down the gmail account.
It's basically psychological blackmail and extortion.
They also commonly use VoIP phone service, apparently since it's a cheap way to make calls to the US. Although sometimes they spoof caller id, more commonly the numbers are good for calling back, at least for a couple months, so you can harass them back.
You might also try contacting the VoIP telecoms, to see if the number is one of theirs, to shut it down. One telecom commonly reported in connection with overseas scam calls is Vitelity, telecom to the scams.
You can reach them here:

I got one to the other day, well my girlfriend is an attorney so I know that theres nothing to worry about.
These people are scammers and even if someone did take a payday loan out on the internet and id not pay it back, well then thats the companys fault. There is no debtors jail. they cant even take you to court.
Heres my letter:
DUE AMOUNT-$963.25

No phone numbers given. I think they changed some things such as adding the Court link ect. after all it's now 2018. I never heard of United States of Attorney. Anyone who receives an email from them research them.
