In my Consumer Report, there are 4 charge offs reporting which is illegal because Charge offs are considered cancelled debt. According to the IRS, cancelled debt is considered income & Income can Not be reported in a consumer report. 

The IRS states that cancelled debt is income and the 3 consumer reporting agencies that are reporting the charge offs are not authorized to report. 

I never authorized to report these charge offs to report on my consumer report, as this is defamation, causing Financially and emotionally damage.

Please note that I am aware of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Pursuant to the FDCPA, it is illegal to engage in any deceptive, unfair, or abusive practices in the collection of debts. Furthermore, the FCRA mandates that the information reported to credit bureaus must be accurate, complete, and verifiable. 

I kindly request that you take the following actions : 1. Cease all collection activities, including phone calls, letters, and any other form of communication, regarding the above-mentioned accounts. 
2. Remove any negative reporting associated with these accounts from my credit files with all three major credit bureaus : XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. 
3. Provide written confirmation within 30 days of receiving this letter that you have ceased all collection activities and that you will no longer report these accounts to any credit reporting agencies.

Failure to comply with this request may result in legal action being taken against your agency for violation of the FDCPA and the FCRA. Please be advised that I am prepared to pursue all available legal remedies to protect my rights. 

I expect your prompt attention to this matter. Please consider this letter as a formal dispute and a request for validation of the accounts in question. I request that all future communication regarding these accounts be conducted in writing and sent to the address listed above. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: MI
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Sued you without properly notifying you of lawsuit

Complaint:
I owed a very old credit card debt that was sold to midland funding LLC collection agency. 
I hired a debt lawyer previously to help me wipe out the debt or settle. This did not go very far. 
I then attempted to settle the debt by contacting midland funding. They weren't able to verify I owed them anything or had an account with them. 
I found out this week that they are garnishing my paychecks without prior contact or serving me. 
I attempted to contact some lawyers to help woth this because it seems very illegal to sue someone without attempting to contact them first in writing. Lawyers were not able to help because they said once the judgement is passed, it's no longer reversible. I was never issued any court/legal documents to attempt to fight or defend myself in the matter.
