They call me at least 2 or 3 times a day and leave me messages. They started calling friends of mine saying they were looking for references. Isn't this against the law?

Called looking for a reference for relatives... found out they are a collection agency.

They call relatives / contacts that may know someone they have partial information on in order to gain personal information to create fraudulent loans. Essentially they are a company that specializes in theft / fraud attempting to steal money from people. Do not return their calls. I'd recommend contacting your phone company to have any numbers they call you on, blocked.
