So a couple of days ago, I get this call at work from some lady at RC Corp. She states I owe some debt and that she has tried to reach me for 2 months now. Not true because I've never heard of her. I tell her I'm at work and I'll call her when I get home. So I call her and get her voice mail which I leave a message. Today she calls, more rude. She says I didnt return her call to which I say yes I did. She wants to argue about it then since I didnt call her she is going forward with a judgement and wants to know if I will be home to receive papers. I told her sure and asked for her fax number so I can send her a DV letter and get my say. She gave it to me and then hung up. Think it's OK to send a DV by fax? I think I read somewhere that is acceptable. Should I follow up with a phone call to her to see if she got it? I mostly want her to know she isn't going to intimidate me.

Keep the transmittal report from the fax machine as proof that it was faxed. Follow up with CMRR via USPS.

I honestly think a call will just result in yet another call that goes nowhere.

It will probably take a few days for them to update the file anyway. Call in about 3 days to see if it's been updated. If it has hang up if it hasn't tell them you will fax it again and hang up.

She said they would be "going forward with a judgment" sounds like an empty threat as this would be bypassing the trial to a default judgment. Unless they intend on sitting on the summons or mailing it to the wrong address to get a default judgment. Give it a few days and check with your court clerks office to see if a docket has been filed.
