I just received a very similar phone call as those reported. When I told them I did not receive the magazines nor was I a subscriber, the caller stated I still needed to pay the bill or she would be forced to turn my account over to collections. I told her I was going to file a Fraud Report with my local law enforcement office and she said "go ahead and do that" until I asked for her address at which point she stated she had to find out what the address was, then stated her supervisor wasn't comfortable giving out their address and then she hung up on me. The caller, who identified herself as Angel Howard, claimed to be from Colorado Magazine Distribution but the Caller Id listed the call as Nationwide Periodicals. The number listed by Caller Id was 720.398.9076 which is suspiciously similar to the phone number listed in the above cases.
