Credit card Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt was discharged in bankruptcy Minnesota

Continued phone calls on personal cell phone and a company issued cell phone. When calling the number I was told it was Portfolio Recovery regarding a couple '' debts owed. I asked what debts they were I was told a - - account and - account listed under a bankruptcy. I informed them I asked in writing for proof of debt and proof that they owned the debt, approx. 3 years ago, I was told I had to ask for it in writing. I informed them again I did not owe a debt to - - and if I did have a account listed under bankruptcy it was illegal for them to collect. I was then told they did not know what I was talking about, they are not trying to collect on any debt under a bankruptcy, this was all said during the same phone call. Portfolio Recovery was trying to collect on a debt under a bankruptcy until I told them it was illegal. I filled a bankruptcy in 2002, how can this company even have information regarding accounts listed on that bankruptcy. I have been dealing with harassment from this company on and off for over 5 years. How can they be allowed to do this. I ask for validation of this debt in writing over and over. They never send it, then continue to tell me I have to ask for it writing. I do everything I am suppose to do, they do everything they can not legally do, yet I have to put up with the harassment. When will something be done about this company ... ...
