The next time they call, you should immediately demand the name of the person calling, the mailing address, the name of the company that the person represents, the name of the person they are trying to locate, and if you don't already have it, the phone number to call back. Then write a letter to them telling them (a) you are not the person they are seeking and you have no information about that person, (b) to stop all calls to your number. Keep a copy of the letter and send it by certified mail. Give it a few days to arrive and be processed. Then, if you get any more calls, go talk to an attorney who is familiar with the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act (FDCPA) and the Florida Consumer Collections Practices Act (FCCPA). You should be able to sue the abusive collector and get up to $1,000 in statutory damages for each statute. The attorney's fees are paid by the collector. (Most of these cases settle early.)
