Complaint:
As stated in Department of the Treasury - Internal Revenue Service Publication 1212 Guide to Original Issue Discount ( OID ) Instruments ; OID is a form of interest. It is the excess of a debt instruments stated redemption price at maturity over its issue price ( acquisition price for a stripped bond or coupon ). Zero coupon bonds and debt instruments that pay no stated interest until maturity are examples of debt instruments that have OID. As stated in Department of the Treasury - Internal Revenue Service Publication 1212 Guide to Original Issue Discount ( OID ) Instruments ; The term debt instrument means any instrument or contractual arrangement that constitutes indebtedness under general principles of federal income tax law ( including, for example, a bond, debenture, note, certificate, or other evidence of indebtedness ). It generally does not include an annuity contract. 

No contractual arrangement exists with said debt collector and it appears that said debt ( evidence of indebtedness ) was purchased pennies on the dollar from the previous Holder in Due Course/ Payor ; hence, said debt collector was not authorized to furnish private information or assume to be the Power of Attorney regarding myself ( Identity Theft ) ; Consequently, the debt is considered void. Nevertheless, it appears that said debt collector is persistent by way of said consumer credit report stating that a debt is owed. However, said evidence of debt constitutes indebtedness under general principles of federal income tax law. The debt collector is considered the Holder in Due Course/ Payor and are liable for the federally withheld amount of {$330.00}. Consequently, said debt collector has committed the following violations regarding said debt instrument ( s ) : failed to provide a 1099 OID regarding said debt instrument ( s ), failed to report income, failed to withheld tax, failed to file return, and failed to pay tax.

it is impossible to furnish information to the Credit Reporting Agencies without first assessing the tax accordingly regarding said debt instrument ( s ) ; Otherwise it is evident that said debt collector knowingly participated in a transaction to effectuate criminal or fraudulent avoidance of tax liability. As the recipient of said debt instrument ( s ), I am being hindered from assessing said tax accordingly by way of form 1099 OID and 1040. Consequently, said debt collector has intentionally impacted ones credit worthiness negatively regarding said debt instrument ( s ) which is  considered irrefutable proof that the debt collector does not respect the general principles of the federal income tax law.
