If I was a betting man, I would say that you have a collections agency that is just flat out lying to you and at the same time breaking the law.
The only people that can just take private property would be a licesed repossession agency, and they could only take suck property that is part of the loan, like a car, boat, etc. The only other way to take a debtors personal property would be by obtaining a judgment from the courts and then filing a motion for Garnishment and Levy of Personal Property, which typically would require them to provide a list of the items they wish to take.
I would say record the calls and contact an FDCPA attorney to sue the pants off the agency for violating your rights.
