A couple years go by and I get a call again. Rinse and repeat.

I did this exact thing with AT&T for a number of years prior to moving to Mexico. So far no one has found me here, good luck with that. Bottom line was I didn't owe them money, never had an account with them. Just simply wasn't me. One thing I would add is make sure you keep an eye on your credit report and make sure it isn't recorded as a "bad debt" with any of the big three agencies.
