Key Issues and Takeaways : XXXX. Unsolicited Debt Collection : I received an unsolicited debt collection communication from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on behalf of XXXX XXXX XXXX, claiming I owe a debt to them. However, I have no prior knowledge or business dealings with either company. 

XXXX.

It is crucial for consumers to know their rights to request validation and verification of any alleged debt under the FDCPA. 

XXXX. Unauthorized Credit Report Inquiries : Both companies have made unauthorized inquiries into my credit reports without my consent, violating the FCRA. Consumers should regularly check their credit reports for unauthorized inquiries and dispute them promptly.

Consumers have the right to demand such documentation to ensure the legitimacy of any claimed debt. 

XXXX. Protection of Personal Information : I have expressed concerns regarding the unauthorized processing and sale of my sensitive personal information, which is prohibited under the laws of Indiana and the XXXX of Virginia.
