They would not stop until I told them I would pay them $250 for some cash advance loan that I may or may not have finished paying a year or two ago.

If this is a legtimate company, you want to look into hiring an FDCPA lawyer, such as our firm, to prosecute an action against them civilly. Most of these cases we do on a contingency fee basis, and make the offender pay the fees. HOWEVER, many of the payday loan harassment cases are fraud cases by companies that dont exists collecting on debts that dont exist...if this is true you can report the info to the attorney general BUT they are incapable of doing anyhting about it if they cant identify the perpetrators, and by definition the fraud people are horribly hard to track
