Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint:
Pay Pal Credit sold a debt to XXXX XXXX XXXX I have for the past XXXX  years requested the original application/validation demonstrating that I personally applied for this loan. 

They have not provided this documentation. The mailing address that they have was for my business. I did not apply or authorize this loan, I believe that an employee ( former husband and controller ) applied for the loan without my knowledge. 

They state that because there were payments made and that this is sufficient validation. I have requested documents related to the methods these payments were made by me ( ie check, another credit card ) which I have not received. 


In summary I believe that I should be able to obtain the original application and what form of authorization I made for this debt. 

I am unable to proceed with other action related to use my name and information fraudulently without proof.The negative report has impacted my credit as well.
