To whom this may concern,
After reviewing my credit reports I noticed that you are alleging that the following accounts are negative
without furnishing any proof of verification of this debt or that you followed all laws and regulations to report
therefore you must remove all negative and adverse  remarks. As you know it is against the law to report any
information not proven accurate. I demand that you provide me with concrete evidence  of my obligation to said accounts. Please be aware that all negative remarks found on my credit report is a violation of the FCRA and FDCPA when you cannot furnish the validity of the remark. I am not in dispute of the ownership of the account but
if you are unable to to provide the full reports of how you validated, verified, and how you are in compliance then you must remove the account from my credit report.
