debt collectors cannot hide their identity; they should introduce themselves while communicating the borrower and also state the purpose of the call. Moreover they cannot use any threatening techniques to pull money from you. And above all they should produce written documents describing the history of the account.
You can ask them for debt validation and they are bound to send you the details. If you find that their demand is legitimate, only then you need to pay it. Know your rights in detail and exercise it whenever required.
If you want to avoid the collection agency or you have some problem paying the whole amount, try to consolidate your debt through a debt consolidation company. You can sill out the sign up form of this website to get a free counseling. Go through the benefits of debt consolidation here-
