A long shot, but... NCO Financial Services

If you've clicked the link you're either a.) curious as to wtf this is about or b.) been contacted by them before.
We just received a call here (automated) from a company called "NCO Financial services", which claims to be a collection agency. Both myself and my girlfriend don't have out-standing debt, so we thought this call to be weird.
We've checked Google and they seem to be a shady collection agency. Pretty much all links I've found claim that they're a scam and that the phone call should not be returned.
From what I've seen they're all over North America so I'm wondering if anyone here has ever been contacted by them, or if anyone has dealt with this sort of thing before.

So now I'm thinking they went to the debt collectors BEFORE the modem was returned. I'm calling Sympatico tomorrow to see what happened on their end. If they've got my old account marked down as paid-in-full then NCO can go fuck themselves as I'm sure I'm in for a whirl-wind of harrassment.
I checked and there's no history with a collector. Look's like NCO is blowing steam.
