I did not give anyone permission to sell my information to any company and due to this being listed as a collection they have violated several laws by purchasing my information without my consent and they have not provided proof of contact stating permission was given. These credit agencies and this collection agency XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in violation of 15 USC 1692g as well as FCRA1681, Section 609. Section 610, Section 611. They were to notify me of this in writing 5 days prior, I was not.

I must be given the original contract with my signature on it. Therefore, the following account must be deleted from my report as required by law. Failure to respond satisfactorily with deletion of the above referenced account and send out a free copy of my report after the changes have been made will result in legal actions being taken against your company, for which I will also be seeking {$1000.00} per violation for : XXXX.
