I am still under the suspicion that this is a scam...

I am still under the suspicion that this is a scam...

Our story:

We got a letter in the mail saying that we owe upwards of $22000 on our MC. It was in my husband's middle and last name and with our address. We don't have a MC by that number and only use credit cards to rack up bonus points and the balances are paid within the month.
I called the local phone number and it said that the offices were closed. I called the toll free number and someone clearly picked up the phone off of the receiver - it seems to me that a place like this would have more of a call-centre type answering system...regardless. I gave the account number and I assured them that this letter was not meant for us. They confirmed the address as ours, but the birthdate of my husband was way off (month, day and year).
They acknowledged that it was probably a mistake and I am left still wondering how they got our address or my husband's information.

It all just seems phishy.
