Consumer complaint received 07-05-2017 about Debt collection (I do not know) with Omega RMS, LLC (NY).
Issue: Written notification about debt
Sub-issue: Didn't receive enough information to verify debt

Complaint: Omega RMS did not comply with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act Section 809.
<P/>
I received a copy of my credit report and noticed a trade line with an account from Omega RMS. Omega RMS failed to send me a written debt validation notice. I then notified all three credit bureaus. Soon after informing the credit bureaus I then called the number listed on my credit report for Omega RMS. I spoke to someone at Omega RMS and they stated they would send something to me. The next week, I received a letter from Omega RMS stating that I owed Omega RMS {$550.00}. Contained in this package was copies of information from XXXX XXXX XXXX with my name on it stating there was an outstanding balance of {$3800.00} and another copy of information from XXXX with my name on it stating there was an outstanding balance of XXXX. There was no evidence of written proof that this alleged account was sold or assigned to Omega RMS or was there a written agreement with the creditor that authorized Omega RMS to collect on the alleged debt. There was also no statement which matches the balance being claimed by Omega RMS as well as there was no complete payment history on said alleged account, to prove the amount Omega RMS wished to collect is accurate. I sent Omega RMS a debt validation letter via USPS which I have proof they received. Until XXXX XXXX, 2017 I did not receive any validation of the debt from Omega RMS and also, Omega RMS verified the debt was accurate to a dispute that I made with the three credit bureaus. Omega RMS did not verify or validate that the debt was accurate with me, but they verified that the debt was accurate with the credit bureaus.
<P/>
On XXXX XXXX, 2017, I received another letter from Omega RMS stating that I owed Omega RMS {$550.00}. Contained in this package again was copies of information from XXXX XXXX XXXX with my name on it stating there was an outstanding balance of {$3800.00} and again another copy of information from XXXX with my name on it stating there was an outstanding balance of XXXX. There was no evidence of written proof that this alleged account was sold or assigned to Omega RMS or was there a written agreement with the creditor that authorized Omega RMS to collect on the alleged debt. There was also no statement which matches the balance being claimed by Omega RMS as well as there was no complete payment history on said alleged account, to prove the amount Omega RMS wished to collect is accurate. How can Omega RMS verify and update with the credit bureaus and not verify with me? Omega RMS also ignored my written request to verify the debt and is continuing to collect on this debt before providing verification and validation. This is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act Section 809. Who are these people and how did they get my social security number? Also how were they able to report this information to the credit bureaus without my authorization?
