XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX NC, XXXX D.O.B : XX/XX/XXXX SSN : XXXX XX/XX/XXXX To whom it may concern, TRANSUNION, I am putting you on notice that you have violated my rights as a consumer. The charged off accounts on my credit report are inaccurate and the lender has written them off on their taxes as a tax credit. They send me a 1099-C that I must file on my personal income tax. Income is not a part of a consumer 's credit report.

( The lender must file Form 1099-C and send you a copy if the amount of debt canceled Is {$600.00} or more and the lender is a financial institution, credit union , federal government agency, or other applicable entity as discussed earlier in chapter1.

The above paragraph is taken directly from IRS publication XXXX. 
The accounts listed on my consumer credit report are not debts or charge offs as reported on my consumer credit report these accounts are in fact Income due the fact that I must file them on my federal income tax return. Income is not a part of a consumer 's credit report. The IRS clearly defines a charge off as gross or ordinary income, INCOME DOES NOT GET REPORTED ON THE CONSUMER CREDIT REPORT which in fact makes your reporting of this account inaccurate. By Definition : The IRS clearly says a cancellation or charge off is income the reporting of these accounts as debt is inaccurate. This is a violation of : 15 U.S. Code 1681e - Compliance procedures : ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates.
