I got a call from a Darren Smith at Ucrb wanting me to call their wage department. I have never heard of them and thought it was from a company looking at hiring my friend. He called and said it wasn't though.

This is collections tactic... they make it like they are going to serve you or your employer papers.  No one receives phone calls informing them that they are going to be "served".  Do not acknowledge the debt and tell them not to contact you by phone anymore and to mail you any communication they need to give you.  If they need your address, tell them if they know who you are that they should have that on file if they were going to "serve" papers.  That's what my call was about... and the guy "Michael Tomkins" must have been new, he sounded like he was reading from a script and he opened up the message with "i'm calling to give employment verification" um, WHAT?  Made no sense.  Collections.
