You are hereby ordered to CEASE AND DESIST all forms of communication with me, my family, or my place of employment regarding the alleged debt referenced above. Your agency has no verified legal right to collect, report, or pursue action on this account without proper and complete validation of ownership and legal assignment of this debt. You are currently in violation of federal law by continuing to report this account to the credit bureaus without substantiating your right to collect.
