1. Is that possible? and how?

The conversation was as follows

she: Blah blah blah......you owe money....Blah blah blah
I: statue of limitation has passed on this debt (delinquent date 10/2002)
She: blah ...blah....blah.....are you going to pay the debt?
I: No
end of conversation..

2. By my saying "no" will that in any way restart the 7 year clock or can they sue me?

any advice/suggestions would be highly welcomed

No they can't restart the clock.Send them a cease and desist letter.I would send them a dv letter stating its not convenient to call you at any time or any number.Will they sue? maybe but ask for a copy of the signed contract.Make sure when you send a letter you print your name.
