Philips & Cohen contacted a family friend who is elderly ( XXXX yrs old ), recently lost her husband and is not linked to the debt in any way. They obtained her information via my credit file because her information is linked to me as a co-signer on a personal loan through a local bank that does not have anything to do with the credit card debt through XXXX that they are attempting to collect. I never supplied this person 's name as a contact or gave anyone permission to contact anyone on behalf of my debt. They called twice, the XXXX time when she answered the automated system asked if she were me and she pressed the key to indicate that it was n't me. The next day a live representative called her and stated that she was calling from Phillips & Cohen, she indicated that I do not live there and she does not want to receive any calls from their company
