You can fight them. They are preying on the ill informed consumer hoping you'll pay rather than fight

I too got a collection letter for a Verizon phone number I didn't recognize. My Verizon phone number was the same for 12 years before I left NYC, paid my final bill and continued my Verizon service upstate (5 years ago).
I sent them a letter demanding validation and no contact except through the USPS.

I sent it registered mail return receipt. About a week after I got the return receipt these people violated the no contact request with another phone call.

I sent them another registered letter explaining they had violated 2 laws regarding this account; the first being the cease collection until the debt was validated and the second the no contact except through the USPS.

I then got a letter stating the account was closed.

Fight back. Send a validation letter. Make them prove it is your debt. Make them prove it is not past the SOL. Call them on it when they violate Federal Collection laws.

They are preying on the ill informed consumer hoping you'll pay rather than fight.
