Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY (PA)

On XX/XX/2021 via Priority Express mail number XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Wells Fargo Bank received my validation of debt letter specifying I want direct verification of the alleged debt they say I owe. I requested to have the competent evidence of said debt and validation under penalty of perjury and as allowed by law, I also asked them to provide me additional evidence including proof that they are licensed to collect in the state of my place of abode. During the initial 30-day investigation period, Wells Fargo Bank was on notice that they should not email or call me, not collect any alleged debt, to write me only at the address listed in the letter, to not send me printouts/copies of the proper documentation, and to not send me statements/bills. Wells Fargo Bank did not provide me direct verification or proof that sufficiently satisfies their claims. Instead, Wells Fargo Bank sent me emails and statements that I did not directly consent to and attempted to collect an alleged debt while the investigation was in place which is a violation pursuant 15 USC 1692g ( b ). Additionally, Wells Fargo Bank continued communicating or attempting to communicate with the Consumer Reporting Agencies about me without my direct prior consent which is a violation pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( b ) causing harm to my reputation which is also a violation pursuant to 15 USC 1692d ( 1 ). Upon further research and discovery, I am the consumer in fact, natural person, original creditor, lender, executor, administrator, holder in due course of any and all derivatives thereof for the surname/given name. Pursuant 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( B ) any compensation lawfully received by any debt collector is FALSE REPRESENTATION and using the false representation of the amount or the legal status of any debt is also FALSE REPRESENTATION pursuant 15 USC 1692e ( 2 ) ( A ). If there is a debt owed, why is the balance in a positive status? In addition to the statement of dispute, a 2nd notice for Direct Verification, Affidavit of Truth and a Rescission of Signatures notice has already been provided to Wells Fargo Bank by I, the consumer in fact via Certified mail number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Pursuant to Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and 15 USC 1692g ( a ) ( 4 ), if the alleged debt is not directly verified by the true bill in commerce within thirty 30 days, per law, it be deemed void by the consumer acting as administrator pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( d ), consumer defined, administrator. Not only the allege debt is still not directly verified, Wells Fargo Bank has committed several federal violations against me, a Private law abiding Federally Protected Consumer, for which I am entitled remedy. Wells Fargo Bank must now provide me the following due to their trespass against me in which they are civilly liable for pursuant 15 USC 1692k : 1. Reimbursement of all prior compensation applied 2. Amount owed to me as stated in the Bill of Particular ( s ) All the documents, exhibits, violations, Bill of Particular ( s ), and overall proof of my claims are included in the attachment to further explain this statement.
