Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against XXXX  XXXX XXXX for the unauthorized and fraudulent dissemination of my personal information to third-party debt collectors, in direct violation of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), codified at 15 U.S.C. 1692, and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), codified at 15 U.S.C. 1602.. Without my confirmation or acknowledgment, sensitive personal details were exposed, leading to significant distress and a breach of privacy. 

Violation listed below : Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Violations : Unauthorized Disclosure : XXXX  XXXX XXXX disclosed my personal information to third-party debt collectors without my permission. This unauthorized dissemination violates 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( b ), which restricts communication of a consumer 's personal information to third parties without consent. 
Harassment and Abuse : During my attempts to address these concerns with XXXX  XXXX XXXX, their representatives responded with laughter and dismissiveness. This behavior constitutes harassment and abuse, violating 15 U.S.C. 1692d, which prohibits conduct that is meant to harass, oppress, or abuse any person. 
False Representation : By sharing my information without authorization, XXXX  XXXX XXXX misrepresented the legal status of my debts and the nature of their business conduct, violating 15 U.S.C. 1692e, which prohibits the use of any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt. 

Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) Violations : Failure to Disclose Terms Accurately : XXXX  XXXX XXXX failed to provide clear and accurate disclosures regarding the terms of my credit, violating 15 U.S.C. 1602. This failure to disclose information accurately has significantly impacted my understanding and management of my debt obligations. 
Unauthorized Transactions : The dissemination of my personal information to third-party debt collectors constitutes unauthorized transactions and a breach of trust, further violating provisions under TILA that protect consumers from unauthorized use of their credit information. 

When I contacted XXXX  XXXX XXXX to express my concerns about these unauthorized actions and their detrimental impact on my credit report, I was met with dismissive and derisive responses from their representatives. Their unprofessional and callous behavior exacerbated my mental health issues, including anxiety and stress, which stemmed from this violation. The damage to my credit report has also caused considerable financial hardship, affecting my cost of living and ability to secure necessary credit. 

I urge the CFPB to investigate this matter thoroughly and hold XXXX  XXXX XXXX accountable for their actions, ensuring that such breaches of consumer rights and privacy are prevented in the future. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I want to be absolutely clear : I did not approve these transactions to be in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. So, I formally ask to block and remove them from my record. This isn't a mistake, nor is it based on any misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my clear consent or instruction. I'm stressing this to show how serious my request is. It's based on accurate info, and I'm not trying to deceive or manipulate the situation.

" The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence, which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 
So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for each account listed without my expressed written consent.

I looked at my consumer reports and noticed accounts I never gave anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report consumer information to the best of their ability with maximum possible accuracy like the Fair Credit Reporting Act clearly states. I did not provide written consent to report them. List all accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX "
