I am a victim of identity theft and have taken proper steps, including filing an identity theft report and notifying the relevant parties.

Additionally, under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), creditors and debt collectors are required to validate any debts they report. This includes providing original documentation proving I authorized these accounts. To date, neither you nor the furnishers of this information have provided such validation, which is a violation of federal law. Reporting unverifiable debts also violates 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2, which mandates furnishers to report only accurate and verified information.

15 U.S.C. 1692k for violations of the FDCPA.

Additionally, I will file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and escalate the matter to state and federal regulators.

Supporting Documents Failure to act on this dispute within the legally required timeframe will serve as further evidence of your noncompliance with federal law. I expect written confirmation of your company actions within 30 days, as required by the FCRA removing these erroneous items and inquiries.
