I would recommend you to contact the Credit Bureaus, reporting a possible FRAUD. If there is a card on your name, one of these bureaus must have record of it. Call them, and mention that Cross Country harrass you without giving you the account number.

If the credit bureaus do not know anything about your Cross Country card, you might try to tell this to the next guy who calling you. Ask the guy for an address or fax number where you can send the statement, that you do not have an account.
If nothing work, you might try to call the FDIC consumer assistance center for advice.
