Should I answer Palisades sudden calls?

I have sent a collection dispute to the credit bureaus about an item that showed up on my credit report from Palisades. They had never called me or mailed me anything. I also sent the a letter demanding written verification of the debt. Now they are calling me. Should I take the call? Or should I wait to see what the credit bureaus have to say and whether or not Palisades answers my letter in writing?

If you have communicated through mail, make sure you be communicated in the same manner. Never interact with a collection agency over the phone (my suggestion). Give them the time to answer your DV letter.
