I was contacted today by a law group about a United States bank account. He said he is going to take me to court and I asked for paper work and he said he would send me a verification of debt. What do I do? I have nothing to prove I owe what they are saying.

You've done what you should do. You've disouted the debt and requested verification. The other party has said they will send it to you.

Debt buyers often file suit on debts which they cannot possibly prove. Consult a consumer lawyer.
