Claimed he was hired to deliver documents to my home and if not there would come to my job to deliver papers. When given the name of one company stating I owed money from October 2020 and I told him that I did not know this company name, he presented another company name which I did not know. He stated that since I denied knowing either of the two companies, I would get papers to settle in court and he immediately hung up. Never given an opportunity to ask any questions.
