The statute (note 3 "T's") is 6 years for open accounts, that is likely what this debt is. Send the people attempting to collect the debt a "cease and desist" letter,CRRR, deny owing the debt and point out that the debt has exceeded the statute of limitations. It is likely a junk debt collector coming after you, this will scare them off.
