If you're in the US, I can give advice.

If they're legit, calmly ask them to which account they are referring to, and tell them they have the wrong person and if they continue you will press charges for harassment

I didn't state my name and I called from my mom's phone and they knew my name. The guy was flat out informal and too quick to say things

I think that Discover has a free credit report you can get from their site. Might be a good idea to see if anything is on it
