ID themselves as National Recovery Assets. I think this is just a phony DBA for UPG. Sometimes this UPG LLC uses a DBA of UCG. Long history of serious debt scamming on 800notes. Can't find anything in New York called National Recovery Assets. They are obviously not calling from any governmental office. They are threatening court action, but it's all a scare tactic. No one forfeits any rights on the basis of any phone call and phone calls are not legal notification of anything.
A call blocker would be a good idea at this time, but remember they will sometimes call from different numbers and may spoof local numbers. Don't return their calls and do not give them any information.
Just because a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt does not mean you owe it
If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:
1. Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2. Demand a debt validation letter by US mail. E-mail no good.
3. Do not pay the collection agent or anyone else a DIME until the debt is validated.
Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply block their calls and ignore them.
If they are bothering you,
Report them:

Also contact your local attorney general
If they continue to bother you, and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion. You may have to yell at them and talk over them. Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved. Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.
