Try reading the material I linked to the other day. It's hosted by the two federal agencies with oversight of debt collectors. Attorneys general are also valid complaint stops. But if you want to cure your own problem with runaway skip trace calls, it's best if you take direct action rather than wait for a rescue which may never come.
Mistrust of any ''wrong number'' claim is standard procedure at all the rogue collection agencies. You will never get satisfaction from a verbal request, and number blocking turns into an arms race you will lose. I see others are reporting possible business names. You need that and a working mailing address to send a ''cease communication'' notice via USPS Certified with return card. This is the method promoted by the FTC and many consumer watchdogs, and the only way to set a legal landmine, as such a notice is ignored at their risk of a lawsuit from you.
