One of my secondary cell phones just got two calls in a row that claimed we were past due on the bill (which isn't technically due for 4 more days and not past due for 10 days) that I paid in full two weeks ago. Since I work for AT&T, I told them no, I wasn't past due, no I didn't owe them 75.00 (my bill is 220+ shoo I wish it was 75 bucks!) and that I was going to call customer service. If you get one of these calls, DO NOT "PAY" YOUR "BILL" (I'm sure they ask for credit card info, I didn't get that far) Call 611 from your cell phone and talk to an authorized customer service representitive.
