Credit card Taking/threatening an illegal action Threatened to sue on too old debt New York

Received a phone call last month from - - on -/-/15 from - - - - - -, he called my home and spoke to a gentleman and before the phone call was over he called the man at my house a bone head ''. The person at home called me and was very upset that this unknown agency called my home phone for me and was that rude. So I called - back and he was very RUDE. He did n't want to talk about how he was rude to the person at my home all he would say was he was threatening to file a judgement against me for an old account that is 15 years old - or older ). The threat of a judgement frightened me cause I want to move and do n't want any negative information on my credit report. He told me that I have good credit - how could he access my credit report? -. So I wanted to address the issue of him being rude when he called my home first off, that 's when - went on to say well I see


the phone and - said I have a $1700.00 balance on a particular account that needs to be settled and that I can settle it today ( for $800.00 ) and I said I do n't have that kind of money so he insisted on a payment which I paid $100.00 on -/-/15 so he said I have until the end of the month to pay another $700.00 to settle this account and I said I do n't know if I 'm going to have it so he said I will give you until - - to pay the $700.00 if you do n't have it I will give you until the end of - to pay a total of $1000.00 to settle the account but by mid - you have to make another $350.00 payment so I did make that on -/-/15. So that left I had another $550.00 to pay by the end of the month. Before that initial phone call I had never heard of - nor had they ever sent me any letters for collection and they have never showed me proof of the account that they are collecting for. I called the creditor that I owe today to find out about that account and it 's not in their system and I 'm not surprised cause that was over 15 years ago. I called BBB and was advised to cancel the $550.00 check ( which I did cancel it ) and investigate and request further information from - about the account they are trying to collect from me. And the BBB referred me to FTC to file a complaint. Everytime I speak to - he 's threatening me with a judgement if I do n't settle this account ASAP and he wont ' accept anything other than a settlement. I 'm a mother with - kids and I do n't need to be threatened by an agency trying to collect on an account that 's 15 years old. They have collected from me $450.00. I called BBB and they have a F '' rating with lots of complaints. Can you please direct me as to how to stop them from calling me and trying to collect on an account that 's 15 years old. Thanks
