Complaint Regarding Federal Student Loan As of XX/XX/XXXX, an amendment to regulation F, which implements the Fair Debt Collection Practice Act says that a debt collector cant report a debt to the three major credit reporting agencies, XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion, before first contacting the consumer. I have a supervisor from XXXX/U.S. Department of Justice stating that they sent documents to all three major credit reporting agencies mentioned above plus she stated that the social security number was on those documents. She had gotten angry with me regarding providing me with full disclosure about the so security number. I told the supervisor that was identity theft. The unlawful compelled use of the social security card, name and account number to alter and sell that card, name and account number to private corporations for profit is unlawful and violates the Privacy Rights Act of XXXX via 5 U.S.C. 552a, 31 C.F.R. 1.32 and 42 U.S.C 408.
