You can send a "Cease Communication" request as per your rights under the FDCPA. However this does one of two things, it runs them off or forces them to file a lawsuit. You can also send a "Debt Validation" request where you dispute the debt and request to see proof of your debt, such as an account history or something you signed. Go to BudHibbs.com and learn about debt collections and debt buyers, etc.. Also go to the FTC.gov website and get familiar with your rights under the FDCPA and the FCRA. Chances are Capitol One sold this debt and it is a debt buyer attempting to collect it. Are your SURE of the exact company name and address?
