On Tuesday, XXXX/XXXX/16, at approximately XXXX I received a call from a male person identifying himself as XXXX. XXXX claimed to be calling from Everest Receivable Services, XXXX, NY XXXX. The telephone shown on monitor showed as XXXX. I have received numerous calls from unknown telephone numbers such as these and typically would not answer since my phone is private unlisted and used for work purposes only. 

XXXX told me he wanted to verify the mailing address of " XXXX XXXX '' he did not pronounce my birth name in full and then when I tried to find out the reason he was calling my private cell phone number, he wanted me to verify the last XXXX digits of my social security number ( often a ploy from subjects committing identity theft fraud schemes ). He stated that he wanted to verify my address as XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX stated that he needed to verify my identity based on Federal Statute Requirements. Yet when I asked him to cite the code section for the Federal Statute he did not know it. 

I have been a victim of Identity Theft in the past and have been in contact with your agency concerning this ongoing problem. I have also filed several complaints with the Federal Trade Commission concerning problems such as this. 

This consistent relentless harassment is becoming emotionally distressing and has effected me in my personal as well as my professional life. Phone calls have been made at my place of business, at my home, at my elderly parents home, and even at my family members ' personal phone numbers. 

I do not believe this type of business practice is appropriate, let alone lawful. 

What steps can I do to stop all this harassment?
