XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX are sure to fail chain of title, no contract with the signature between the debt collector and I. They have n't proved this. XXXX must prove that : ( 1 ) it has the right to sue you ; ( 2 ) that debt is yours ; and ( 3 ) you owe the amount they sued you for. They have n't and are still trying to collect debt on this. They continue to willfully break the law even after being sued in class action lawsuits, fines and they continue. It is so unreal these guys are still in business. They know that they are wrong and they still try to get away with any and everything that they can. I am seeking they stop pursuing me. The thing that makes it easy for XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX to get prosecuted again is the track record. I am seeking that XXXX XXXX XXXX has there debt collecting bond revoked since they continue to disobey the law time and time again so willfully, For filing so many false and altering court filings XXXX XXXX group requires being barred and there Bar number revoked. I warned them through a cease and desist letter informing them that they are breaking the law by continuing to try to collect so instead of doing what is right by. ( THERE IS MORE TO THIS )
