I am not participating in the collection of this alleged debt. 
Stop contacting me about this or any other matter you have. Cease and Desist ASAP, except to provide me with accurate validation of this debt by U.S. mail only, not the same insufficient docs you already sent. Delete this unverified and inaccurate account from my credit report immediately.
