Personal loan platform harasses me with rude calls and threats

They also pretend to be from the Credit Bureau to squeeze money out of me, even though I don`t have any. They also called my sister and friend to embarrass me. They are so rude, the rudest debt collectors I`ve ever encountered.

Tenant argues previous notice void, demands new 12-month notice. Is it legal?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam, Urgent Legal Assistance Needed for Dubai Eviction Case I recently purchased an apartment in Dubai (Oct 3, 2023) and served an eviction notice (Oct 9, 2023) referring to a prior notice by the previous owner (Feb 9, 2023). The notice was in both English and Arabic. The previous owner`s Arabic-only notice (Feb 9, 2023) stated intent to sell which the tenant didn`t accept to receive as it was not in English and Arabic. However, the tenant agreed (Apr 25, 2023) to vacate by Jan 31, 2024, over email. The tenancy agreement without Ejari, signed on Apr 25, 2023, spans Jun 1, 2023, to Jan 31, 2024, for 8 Months. A clause binds the tenant to vacate on Jan 31, 2024, referencing the previous eviction notice (Feb 9, 2023). I seek guidance on eviction rights, as the property is for personal use, and no other properties are registered in my name. Can we file through court? The tenant argues the previous notice is void, demanding a new 12-month notice post-Jan 31, 2024.
