Harrassing phone calls RE: $17 charge allegedly made and not paid in 1993

This started last September when I received a phone call from Asset Acceptance telling me I owed a debt of $17 and change for a charge that was made on a JC Penney store card in 1993. I asked them to send me something that proved I owed the debt. They said they sent me a letter in July and that because I didn't respond that they were under no obligation to prove I owed it now as my non-response indicated that I agreed that I owed it. I laughed and told them to get real! The woman then said "please verify your social security number for us" I said NO. How do I know this isn't an identity theft scam? I am not giving any personal info - you have to prove to me that I owe this. She agreed to send me a letter with proof etc. I never received a letter and didn't hear from them for the next 6 months. Now in March I am getting daily phone calls at different times. It is the same each time with an automated message telling me if I continue to listen I am acknowledging I am the person and owe the debt. I have caller id so I just let it go to VM or occasionally pick up and hang up. How can I get this to stop??? I really don't believe that I owe the debt, the statute in my state is way over for lawsuits etc so I am not afraid - however this is ridiculous!!!
