Company: ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP INC.
State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
Midland Credit Management , Inc has violated my consumer rights and I have proof of these violations. Reporting invalidated information to XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX may constitute fraud under federal and state laws. I will be filing a complaint to the FTC, my state attorney general, as well as reporting identity theft. You have stolen my nonpublic personal information and violated my right to privacy. I do not consent to my information being used. You can not lawfully purchase my personal information. I am under no legal obligation as a consumer to pay you for an alleged debt. Below is a list of violations of my consumer rights.

This alleged debt was not validated according to my rights as consumer found in 15 usc 1692g.

I am the original creditor, a natural person who can extend credit. Not a corporation.

It also states in 15 usc 1692g ( c ), that the failure to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. You violated this law. 

Not use any language or symbol on any envelope or in the contents of any communication affected by the mails or telegram that indicates that the debt collector is in the debt collection business or that the communication relates to the collection of a debt. Violation of 15 usc 1692b ( 5 ).

It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating. Violation of 15 usc 1692j ( a ).

The false representation or implication that any individual is an attorney or that any communication is from an attorney. Violation of 15 usc 1692e ( 3 ).

Multiple FDCPA violations including, 15 usc 1692e ( 2 ), 15 usc 1692e ( 10 ), 15 usc 1692c, 15 usc 1692b ( 3 ), 15 usc 1692e ( a ), 15 usc 1692d, 15 usc 1692b. Each violation is up to {$1000.00} fine per violation according to 15 usc 1692k ( a ) ( 2 ) ( a ). 

My federally protected consumer rights have been violated on multiple occasions and my character has been defamed. As you can see by the dates and the note at the bottom of each letter, I have already mailed certified, a cease and desist letter and Midland Credit Management Inc. have continued to send threatening debt collection letters multiple times after. 

I request this account and all comments be removed from my consumer credit report immediately.
