Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX I wrote to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and LVNV Funding LLC requesting validation and an investigation into a account that does not belong to me and that has not been verified and is being reported intentionally and unlawfully without being in compliance with the FDCPA or FCRA. I requested validation that this account is being reported accurately and copies of proof. I have not received any such proof to date. 1. I requested validation of the debt- that is, actual accounting 2. Verification of their claim against me 3. A copy of the Original contract binding both parties ( Creditor and I ) in a letter by " certified mail '' so that there is a independent " witness to it having been delivered '' I received no response at all within the 30 day timeframe. And LVNV still is reporting a non compliant account. Instead of verifying the account within compliance I received a email stating my account has been sold to RESURGENT CAPITAL SERVICES ( a copy of email included ) RESURGENT CAPITAL SERVICES mails out a printout of a statement which IN FACT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE validation of this debt. Yet, LVNV is still reporting the noncompliant, unverified, incomplete account. I requested the METHOD OF VERIFICATION they did not comply. 
PLEASE NOTE on XX/XX/XXXX CFPB releases its FDCPA Annual Report stating the following one or more debt collectors continued collection activity despite not properly obtaining and mailing debt verification after the consumer exercised his or her 1692g rights. Specifically the Bureau calls out the practice where " debt collectors forwarded consumer debt validation request to irrelevant clients, who mailed responses directly to consumers. Section 809 ( b ) of the FDCPA. 

As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney XXXX XXXX XXXX you should be aware that a printout ( copy included ) of a bill or itemized document does NOT constitute verification. 

A copy of the Method of verification used was requested also. Including the names, address and numbers of all who were involved in verifying this account without proof.So that can inquire about the procedure used to verify. I received no response as well LVNV is in violation of : sections 623. [ 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ] Responsibilities of Furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies ( a ) Duty of Furnishers of Information to provide accurate information.- ( 1 ) Prohibition ( A ) Reporting Information with actual knowledge of errors.- ( B ) Reporting Information after Notice and confirmation of errors.- ( 2 ) Duty to Correct or Update Information ( 3 ) Duty to provide notice of dispute 813 [ 15 U.S.C. 1692k ] Civil liability 805.
