You cannot rely on ANY statements made py strangers on the phone.
Legitimate debt collectors will comply with FDCPA.
They will send you a letter within 5 days of first contact, notifying you of the alleged debt, and of your right to dispute and request validation of it.
If you request validation, they will cease collection until the obtain documentation from the original creditor and send it to you.
Any illegal practices by debt collectors may be an indicator of fraud.
I just filed complaints with the FTC (1-877-FTC-HELP) and FBI's internet fraud division called IC3 (www.IC3.gov). You should too.
