$825 Collection Letter for Phone Service From 1994 to 1997

I received a letter postmarked Jan. 17th dated Jan. 3rd from AFNI Inc. Requesting $825.00 from a creditor named Verizon Communications, Inc. The bill was for phone service between 1994 and 1997.

This was the first time I have ever heard of this. I called them and was informed they had just obtained the bill in Sept. 2006.

They told me not to contact Verizon and I must send verification of where I lived between 1994 and 1997.

Am I suppose to send the money for a bill that is 10 to 13 years old because they say so? They also told me even if I request the validity of this debt, all they have is a statement from the Verizon & that is what they will provide me with.

Sounds like a scam to me. What can I do? Even if this was mine, how could I prove I paid something from 10-13 years ago? I wouldn't even have the receipts.
