As per FTC opinion letter from Attorney General XXXX XXXX XXXX, you should be aware that a printout of a bill or itemized document does not constitute verification. Please provide me with the following : 1. What the money you say I owe is for? 
2. Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe? 
3. Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe : 4. Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable : 6.

12. PROVIDE THE DOCUMENTATION AND PROOF YOU PROVIDED ME REGARDING THE STATE OF THIS ACCOUNT ONCE IT BEGAN REPORTING AS A LATE PER FCRA LAW FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 4 ), As it stands now the reporting is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. ( FCRA ) I would also mention that one needs to also insure your employees are receiving and following the proper training in regard to your chosen industry. This statement is in reference to the past nature of your correspondence/communication. The Court has stated the following, which you should be quite familiar with : The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. 1692-1692n ( " FDCPA '' or " Act '' ), under which this case arises, is premised on the congressional belief that " 'every individual, whether or not he owes the debt, has a right to be treated in a reasonable and civil manner, ' '' XXXX v. XXXX. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ( XXXX  Cir. XXXX ), citing XXXX XXXX. Rec. XXXX ( XXXX ). 

At this time, we solely seek the correct remedy to our credit report AND DELETE THIS ACCOUNT From all 3 bureaus. It is in good faith that we will assume your employees in the future will follow the rules of the FCRA/FDCPA with any of your other clients you may have, as they have failed miserably thus far in our case. 

We stress that this matter requires your immediate attention as I am currently, due to your reporting inaccuracies, experiencing financial injury. In addition, now that you have been AGAIN PROPERLY notified of your error in writing, you may not continue to report the information as it is, in fact, an error. Should you not correct this we will pursue the extent of damages incurred BY ME, the injured partY, as deemed by the courts. ( US Court of Appeals, XXXX Circuit, XXXX. XXXX, XXXX vs. XXXX XXXX ) If you need to contact ME regarding this account I request all correspondence be sent to the address below and will NOT accept phone calls from you or your associates. All correspondence will be in writing/EMAIL only. 

If this matter isnt fixed immediately, I fully intend to pursue litigation in accordance with the FCRA to enforce my rights and seek relief and recover all monetary damages that I may be entitled to under Section 600-618 regarding your continued willful and negligent noncompliance. 

Despite XXXX written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. You are required under the FCRA to have a copy of the original creditors documentation on file to verify that this information is mine and is correct. In the results of your first investigation and subsequent reinvestigation, you stated in writing that you verified that these items are being reported correctly. Who verified these accounts? You have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Federal Law. Furthermore you have failed to provide the method of verification as an Original Wet Note signature Please be advised that under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA you are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.

The law is very clear as to the Civil liability and the remedy available to me if you fail to comply with Federal Law. I am a litigious consumer and fully intend on pursuing litigation in this matter to enforce my rights under the FCRA. AND if not fixed immediately, I will be seeking a minimum of {$1000.00} in damages per violation for : 1 ) DEFAMATION 2 ) VIOLATION OF FCRA ACTS ( SECTIONS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, 807-8, 623-a-3, 616-617, 623 ( a ) ( 5 ), 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( C ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ), FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 7 ) ( G ) ( i ) ) Thank You,  XXXX XXXX XXXX
