A debt collections scam report, targeting a consumer in GA, USA - 30044.

Narrative evidence

What happened

they call and ask if they are speaking with me. each time i tell them to remove my name from the list. they will either hang up or one guy got smart with me and asked how can he remove me from the list if i won't talk to him. they call back to back to back...sometimes within minutes of each other from ALL these different numbers. it just began around the 15th...nothing unique happened so i don't know why they are targeting me, but i feel helpless. all i've been able to do is activate the block feature on my phone for all these numbers.
