Re : Dispute of Inaccurate, Unauthorized, and Harmful Information on Credit Report To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute the following inaccurate, unauthorized, and harmful information on my credit report. These items have caused significant damage to my creditworthiness and reputation. Additionally, I never provided consent for these entities to report this information, nor was I given an option to opt out, which is a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). This situation also constitutes a deprivation of my rights under the color of law, which is a violation of 18 U.S.C. 242, and a conspiracy against my rights under 18 U.S.C. 241.

Outdated addresses may not meet these conditions if they no longer accurately reflect your current situation.

# # # IRS Implications and Failure to Include in IRS Filings : These companies have IRS obligations when they charge off debts and report them.
