and according to 15 USC 1681s-2 they are supposed to not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

The current injury and defamation of character that my family and I are experiencing because of the blatant disregard for reporting inaccuracies on my credit report is astonishing and it is affecting our home and life. I have XXXX charge offs adversely reporting on my credit file that should not be on my credit report. I am aware that these companies mentioned above are lawfully acting in commerce utilizes the IRS form 1099C Cancellation of Debt for the remaining debt obligation not recovered. Such an IRS form is then reported as " INCOME '' and not as a " DEBT '' on a consumer 's tax filing requirements. While the business can cancel/ write off the account receivables '' as a " BAD DEBT '' and receive a tax deduction as mentioned in the IRS Topic 453. Reporting any income on a credit report is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 
This current issue of the above mentioned accounts furnishing this inaccurate information on my consumer credit report is clearly not only going against the rules of construction in the area of " exclusions '' of reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report '', This inaccurate information as to what the IRS Publication 4681 defines as " Income '' and not " Debt '' is being furnished to third party data furnishers as well. Your agency continues to violate my consumer rights, specifically Under 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( d ) Consumer Report ( 2 ) Exclusions ( i ) report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. These accounts ABOVE should be removed!
