Shockingly, many recipients describe these calls as outright intimidation. A phone number linked to a debt‑collection outfit can appear repeatedly, using aggressive language and vague threats. For privacy protection, first block the number on your device and add it to the national Do‑Not‑Call registry. Request a written verification of any alleged debt before sharing personal data; legitimate collectors are required to provide it in writing. Report abusive behavior to the FTC and your state attorney general. Consider using a call‑screening app and keep a log of each encounter. Staying vigilant limits exposure and preserves your privacy, and reduces the risk of identity theft.
