No response from creditor re validation letter


What is the name of your state? AL
I sent a debt validation letter to a supposed creditor of my deceased spouse a couple of months ago. I did not get a response to the letter. What is the next action that I can expect on their part? Do they usually go the courts next to attempt to sue family members? There was no estate or probate. Thanks in advance for any response.

Why would they validate a debt to you that isn't yours?

Why would you request validation on a debt that isn't yours?

No response from creditor re validation letter


The letter was sent because they called my phone continuously and sent mail addressed to deceased spouse and also the "estate" demanding payment. They know spouse is deceased. When they started addressing mail to me personally I requested validation, hoping they would realize that my name was not associated with any of their accounts. I would just like to have an idea of what to expect next. Thanks
