If you can get your attorney to print an automatic stay(their software can do it in a jiffy) or have them print the case information with the court seal from PACER, I would then email, fax or mail them a copy, and then keep a copy of the letter you sent. IF they continue to harass, then it is FDCPA violation time, and your attorney can potentially sue them and you get $1000. cha-ching!(not that simple but I summarize for this post).

Good Luck
