I am currently disputing the validity and accuracy of this debt and demand that you either provide all the necessary documentation as required by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), or DELETE the debt from your records. It is my belief that among otherissues XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX are in Violation of all below. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) : Debt collectors must comply with the provisions outlined in the FDCPA, a federal law governing debt collection practices. It prohibits abusive, deceptive, or unfair practices and sets guidelines for communication, validation of debts, and disclosure of rights to consumers. Validation of Debts : Upon receiving a debt collection request, debt collectors must provide consumers with written validation of the debt. This validation should include details such as the amount owed, the original creditor, and information on the consumer 's rights to dispute the debt. Dispute Resolution : Debt collectors must provide a mechanism for consumers to dispute the debt and request verification. They must investigate and respond to consumer disputes within a reasonable timeframe. Prohibited Practices : Debt collectors are prohibited from engaging in certain practices, such as misrepresenting the debt amount, falsely implying legal action, or threatening actions they can not legally take. They must provide accurate and truthful information to consumers. I DEMAND you provide all the above documents pursuant to the CFPB and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) or DELETE the debt. In the absence of providing the requested documentation, I demand that you DELETE the debt from your records and cease any further collection efforts associated with it. Please note that the CFPB regulations require you to provide the requested documentation within 30 days of receiving this written request. I appreciate your attention to this matter and your prompt response. 

Lastly, the alleged debt has been charged off by the original creditor. Per the IRS a charge off is considered to be cancelled for the forgiven or discharged amount. The amount is no longer owed, but it must be reported the following year as INCOME. XXXX has a blog article that is called XXXX is not a part of your XXXX credit history and therefore not included in your XXXX credit score and XXXX has an article on their website XXXX things that wont affect your XXXX XXXX or credit worthiness XXXX point in the article was income. When there are documents on the consumer reporting websites stating INCOME should not be on the consumer report why is it? PROVIDE ALL DOCUMENTS and prove the debt isnt income or REMOVE the alleged debt. If there are any questions, please dont hesitate to contact me at the email address associated with this account.
