Product: Debt collection

I am filing this complaint due to the mishandling of an alleged debt tied to identity theft and fraudulent activity. Despite multiple requests for verification and documentation of the debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), Blitt and Gaines, P.C., anXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX have failed to provide adequate responses, while their actions raise serious concerns of procedural violations, negligence, and potential fraud. The key points of my complaint are as follows : 1. Failure to Verify Debt Properly ( FDCPA Violation ) : I sent a debt validation request on XX/XX/XXXX, to Blitt and Gaines , P.C . The response received five months later ( on XX/XX/XXXX after the identity theft was known to take place ) consisted only of boilerplate statements and failed to meaningfully address my concerns or validate the alleged debt. 
Over the course of the case, Blitt and Gaines , P.C . provided 300+ pages of statements on five occasions, which do not meet the legal standards for validation as outlined under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). These responses have been insufficient to confirm the legitimacy of the alleged debt. 
No sworn affidavit or detailed declaration about the alleged debt was provided, despite repeated requests. 
2. Evidence of Fraud and Identity Theft : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX has confirmed fraudulent activity on the XXXX account ending in XXXX and its associated checking account. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, an unauthorized charge to revert the alleged funds from the account ending in XXXX back to the associated checking account, which XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX confirmed as fraudulent. A case number ( XXXX ) was provided by their fraud department. There has also been fake disputes sent to me since this transaction has taken place Despite this, Blitt and Gaines , P.C . and XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX have failed to investigate or resolve this fraud claim adequately. 
3. Procedural Irregularities : Improper Service : Blitt and Gaines P.C. letter dated XX/XX/XXXX, letter raises significant procedural concerns. It references service on XX/XX/XXXX on the docket, despite legal proceedings being paused at that time. Furthermore, it cites a XX/XX/XXXX, notice referencing a docket number, yet I was not served or informed of any impending lawsuit prior to filing my appearance on XX/XX/XXXX. These discrepancies highlight a lack of proper notice and service, possibly violating procedural fairness and undermining the validity of their claims. 

Falsified Documents : Blitt and Gaines , P.C . submitted an altered version of a XXXX XXXX XXXX notice ( Exhibit C ) in their motion to strike ILCS Rule 280.5. This document redacted critical details, including claim numbers, and falsely implied I initiated disputes with XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. This document contradicts XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX statements confirming I made no such disputes. 

Misrepresentation of Facts : Blitt and Gaines , P.C . falsely claimed I disputed the alleged debt twice in XX/XX/XXXX, which was refuted by XXXX XXXX XXXX. Blitt and Gaines P.C affidavit ( XXXX affidavit ) also contains inconsistencies, including incorrect dates and procedural disposition inaccuracies. 

4. Collusive Fraud Allegations : The failure of Blitt and Gaines , P.C . and XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX to communicate effectively, investigate fraud claims, or provide meaningful responses raises concerns of potential collusion. 
Both parties failed to address clear evidence of fraud, and their responses redirect responsibility back and forth without resolution, leaving me vulnerable to ongoing harm. 
5. Harm Experienced : Emotional and Financial Stress : The mishandling of this case, including the failure to address fraud and procedural irregularities, has caused significant emotional distress and financial uncertainty. 
Credit Impact : Fraudulent activity and unresolved disputes have negatively impacted my credit report, with inaccurate notations such as " Consumer disputes after resolution '' appearing on my file. 

I have attached the following evidence to support my complaint. 
XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Fraud Confirmations : Including case numbers and transcripts of calls with representatives XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
Exhibit C ( Altered Document ) : Evidence of the falsified document submitted by Blitt and Gaines , P.C . 
Timeline of Events : Demonstrating the delay, miscommunication, and procedural failures. 
A copy of the postage in which Blitt and Gaines P.C sent the allegations to respond by in what appears to be sent out very late.
