Consumer complaint received 2021-08-26
Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Written notification about debt — Didn't receive notice of right to dispute
Company: Diversified Adjustment Service, Inc. (FL)

Diversified Adjustment Service Inc sent me a document in the mail claiming that I owe a debt. Not only do I not know what debt they are referring to, or what it is for, they have violated my rights as a consumer. Pursuant to the FDCPA, specifically 15 USC 1692b, it states, Any debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall - ( 1 ) identify himself, state that he is confirming or correcting location information concerning the consumer, and, only if expressly requested, identify his employer ; ( 2 ) not state that such consumer owes any debt ; ( 3 ) not communicate with any such person more than once unless requested to do so by such person or unless the debt collector reasonably believes that the earlier response of such person is erroneous or incomplete and that such person now has correct or complete location information ; ( 4 ) not communicate by post card ; ( 5 ) not use any language or symbol on any envelope or in the contents of any communication effected by the mails or telegram that indicates that the debt collector is in the debt collection business or that the communication relates to the collection of a debt ; and ( 6 ) after the debt collector knows the consumer is represented by an attorney with regard to the subject debt and has knowledge of, or can readily ascertain, such attorneys name and address, not communicate with any person other than that attorney, unless the attorney fails to respond within a reasonable period of time to communication from the debt collector. Pursuant to the FDCPA, specifically 15 USC 1692e, it states, A debt collector may NOT use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 8 ) Communicating or threatening to communicate to any person credit information which is known or which should be known to be false, including the failure to communicate that a disputed debt is disputed. ( 14 ) The use of any business, company, or organization name other than the true name of the debt collectors business, company, or organization. Pursuant to the FDCPA, specifically 15 USC 1692f, it states, A debt collector may not use unfair or unconscionable means to collect or attempt to collect any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section : ( 8 ) Using any language or symbol, other than the debt collectors address, on any envelope when communicating with a consumer by use of the mails or by telegram, except that a debt collector may use his business name if such name does not indicate that he is in the debt collection business.

Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 1692k - ( a ) Except as otherwise provided by this section, any debt collector who FAILS to comply with any provision of this subchapter with respect to any person is LIABLE to such person in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damage sustained by such person as a result of such failure ; ( 2 ) ( A ) in the case of any action by an individual, such additional damages as the court may allow, but not exceeding {$1000.00}. I sent an invoice for 9 Federally protected consumer right violations under the FDCPA. Attached is the communication I received highlighting all the violations conducted against me and proof. This is a clear violation of the law and is not equitable or fair to me, the consumer.
