This information by law must be deleted. 
15 USC 1681i ( a ) Reinvestigations of disputed information ( 1 ) Reinvestigation required In general Subject to subsection ( f ) and except as provided in subsection ( g ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a consumer reporting agency is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a reseller, of such dispute, the agency shall, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from the file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or reseller. 

In other words, to properly report information as verified, the furnisher must have sufficient evidence to support the conclusion that the information was true. Id. at 1303. If the furnisher does not already have such evidence, it must seek out and obtain it before reporting that the information is verified. Id. at 1303 ; see also XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX. XXXX ) ( defining verify as [ t ] o prove to be true ; to confirm or establish the truth or truthfulness of ; to authenticate ). 
importantly, a furnishers inability to conclusively determine that the disputed information is inaccurate does not mean that the furnisher is permitted to report back to the consumer reporting agency that its investigation verified the accuracy of that information. Instead, if the evidence available to the furnisher is insufficient to establish the truth or falsity of the disputed information, then, under the statutory framework, the furnisher must report that its investigation concluded that the disputed information can not be verified. 
You not responding to my dispute within the 30 day period allotted by law proves you can not validate or verify this account. 
Delete this account { JPMCB # XXXX } from my consumer reports.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2024 I submitted a complaint against LVNV FUNDING LLC [ Complaint id # XXXX ] and in that complaint I attached a dispute letter that gave them a refusal to pay/cease and desist notice. In that notice I specifically explained and quoted the FDCPA and its laws regarding cease and desist. I had requested that this company cease communication with me both directly and indirectly through all mediums as described in the FDCPA however LVNV FUNDING LLC is still communicating with me via credit reporting. Credit reporting is an indirect medium as they are contacting a third party agency ( consumer reporting agencies ) about this alleged debt. This is a direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ), in other words section 805 of the FDCPA. This is my last warning to this agency before I proceed with legal action.

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX of 2024 I received a notice on my credit karma report from Equifax alerting me there was a derogatory remark on my report. I was shocked to see that a collection company named XXXX XXXX was report for {$740.00}... I previously had the same account which held by another collection agency in same amount for {$740.00} which was on my Equifax credit report was previously removed. My question is how can a collection that was previously removed by the credit bureau be allowed to put the same collection account back on my credit report but instead allow another collection agency to do this. I believe this is not right and it is an unfair practice.
