Consumer complaint received 2018-06-04
Company: Stanislaus Credit Control Service, Inc.
State: GA
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt is not yours

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from my credit monitoring service. It informed me that my credit score had dropped over 40 points. I logged on and found that Stanislaus Credit Control had illegally posted a collection account and the original creditor was XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have never heard of nor had an account with either of these two companies. My report shows that it is an open account and was opened on XX/XX/XXXX with a balance of {$470.00} I have no know knowledge of these two companies nor this debt. I have never had an account not any dealings with either of them. I never receive a letter in the mail that gave me 30 days to validate or dispute this account. I never received a letter stating that I have an alleged debt with this company and owe a balance on that account. Again, I have absolutely no knowledge of this account with them. I understand that, under the FDCPA guidelines for collection agencies or me to go further with this account, I need ( 1 ) proof that they are the original holder of this debt and can legally hold me responsible for paying this debt and ( 2 )  contractual proof of obligation or an assignment SIGNED in BLUE ink from an officer from the original creditors corporation that I am supposed to pay them. 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( b ) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) grants me the right to request validation of this alleged debt they say I owe. If I would have gotten anything in the mail from this company before they illegally reported to my credit report, I would have respectfully requesting evidence that I am the person they are asking to pay this debt and a contractual obligation that legally binds me to pay them this debt. 
Upon them receiving my validation letter, they would have to legally cease from collection calls, letters, and efforts and delete the account from my credit files until they can validate this debt. But again, I never received such a letter about this account ever in the mail. They have illegally posted and reported to my credit file file without adhering to the FDCPA laws. 

When I got the email on XX/XX/XXXX, proceeded to contact them via phone number that was listed on the account ( XXXX ). From the first time I called up to now, no one is picking up the phone and the phone line says to leave a message. There is no other contact information, but by phone. However, there is no voicemail prompt to leave a message. Im not sure if this a scam or someone is attempting to hack my credit file or not. What I do know is that this company has broken FCRA and FDCPA laws but reporting a false account to my credit report without informing me through mail, email, phone, etc. My credit score has dropped tremendously in the middle of purchasing a home. Please help me get his account removed immediately. I'm preparing to sue under the FCRA and FDCPA because of the damages to my credit and opportunity costs with the purchase of my home and business ventures that have to be delayed until this illegal account is removed.
