Caller said that I was in debt (I don't think English was her first language) I told her I wasn't in any debt and she disputed this! 🙄She kept telling me that I should not deny being in debt. She got increasingly angry with me, told me I was stupid and that she couldn't help me, then she disconnected! I have blocked the number.
