Started geting phone calls from a third party threatening me with awarrant for my arrest an two felonies since then I have returned items to Arrons I got a reciept of surrender .. This company is still calling me telling my family I will be picked up in 48 hours with a warrant to go to jail ..Is this right ?What shouldI do... They will not even respond to the fact I have returned items with receipt to prove it .. They will not stop until I am in jail..

Ignore them. Don't talk to them or acknowledge them in any way. They will say anything to get you to pay them for the debt they purchased.
There won't be a warrant and you won't go to jail. They just want you to be afraid you will so you will pay what they demand.
f you have caller ID don't answer the phone unless you recognize the number and know it is ok. If you do not have caller ID hang up as soon as you know it is them. Don't argue, don't negotiate, don't do anything but hang up and ignore them. It may take awhile, but they will quit after awhile of having no contact and will find someone else to bug.
