15 USC 1692b ( 5 ) Not use any language, symbol on any envelope that indicates that the debt collector is a debt collector. Meaning if there is a symbol ; which is shown, the debt collector is in a huge violation. Without written instructions, I never gave anybody written information to put anything on my credit report.
