Tell them you cannot have personal calls at work. If it's the original creditor, try to work out something. If it's a collection agency, ask for validation of the debt and follow up your request with certified letter. In that letter include a cease and desist stating you only want to be contacted via USPO/mail. If they continue to call/make threats, let them know you are reporting them for violation of credit regulations.
