These people (Preferred Platinum) is trying to charge me $1,800 for some phone entertainment calls that I know nothing about. They are also threating me with the DA office and Local police dept.The guy that has been calling me is James Castalano saying he is a detective and he can analize my voice over the phone with a device. I have asked him numerous time to send me a bill in the mail and he keeps saying that he can only fax it to me but I do not have a fax machine or a way to a fax machine. He also said the only way i can make a paymen is electronic check,credit card or western union. The city he gave me in California, there is not a city by that name in California. He is scaring me and getting on my nerves. Can you guys help me?

Sounds like a bogus collection scam.

"They are also threating me with the DA office and Local police dept."
This is a tipoff that the caller is not trying to collect on a legitimate bill. It would be illegal for a real collector to threaten these things. Also, it is not a crime to not pay a bill. The DA and police department would have no involvement in such a thing.
"The guy that has been calling me is James Castalano saying he is a detective and he can analize my voice over the phone with a device."
This sounds ridiculous. First of all, if he's implying that he works for law enforcement, you know he's lying. Cops don't do bill collecting. Second, the bit about analyzing your voice just seems over the top. This guy is trying too hard.
Don't be scared. Next time he calls, tell him you know it's a scam and hang up. Don't talk to him anymore and he won't scare you.
