Seems instead of harrassing you; it's the 'Scarlet Letter' approach!
Over a year ago my elderly neighbor told me of this practice and I discounted it, as it doesn't seem legal.
Today I get a call at 10:20am Central time from (on ID as:) 972-555-1212! She introduces herself as an Investigator from Wasau County. She asks if I know 'so and so'. I asked her who this is, she gives me her name as Sandy Stone. She asks me if I know 'so and so, my neighbor' and speals off addresses. She claimed it is not collections. Private investigator? She hedged, it's Global Investigations Services out of Dallas Texas! They (the company) call neighbors or others in the general vacinity of their 'target of investigations'. She asked if I knew 'so and so, aforementioned neighbor's girlfriend', does he still drive a 'colour and make of car'! Left phone # of 18003814640x205 for me to tell neighbor! 'Scarlet Letter' my neighbor and me be the 'bad guy'? WHAT?!

My question isn't about what I should say or not say. It's about 'it's none of my business to get into my neighbors business... and this company isn't paying me to be their gopher nor do I wish to be. There is something inherently wrong with this practice of imposing upon neighbors in the guise of 'law enforcement field professional'. Shall I add that in 'my neighborhood' we 'got them drinking gun toting men'? The 'Scarlet Letter' was 'A' for 'adultry'... I used it in reference to the 'classic story of same title'... 15th century public shame. It's not my business; it's thiers and their debotors. Perhaps I should post to a legal forum.
