Threatened by 'Steinberg and Associates' for a fake debt, scared of asset seizure – what can I do?

I'm in East London, South Africa, and I've been getting these absolutely terrifying phone calls for the past two weeks from people claiming to be 'Steinberg and Associates'. They're saying I owe some massive outstanding debt from an old loan I *never* took out, and they're threatening to get a court order to garnish my wages and seize my assets if I don't pay immediately. They even knew my address and some old employment details, which freaked me out. I honestly don't know where they got this information. I'm a single mom, and these threats are making me lose sleep. I've blocked the numbers, but they keep calling from new ones. Is this a common scam? Is there really anything they can do? I'm so worried about my bank accounts being frozen or losing my house. Any advice on how to handle this, or if I should even bother reporting it?
