Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Southwest Credit Systems, L.P.
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted the collection agency via mail to request validation of the debt and to request that they cease communications with me until the debt could be verified. However, to date, I have not received a response from the collection agency regarding the validation of the debt. 

Subsequently, I contacted the agency 's dispute department and spoke with XXXX XXXX and I was informed that they had sent a validation debt letter to the original creditor on XX/XX/XXXX and were awaiting a response. I followed up with the agency on XX/XX/XXXX as advised, but they informed me that they still had not received the validation of the debt and then disconnected the call. 

Despite my efforts to resolve this issue with the collection agency, they have failed to provide the requested validation of the debt, which continues to negatively impact my credit score. I believe this is a violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and request that the CFPB investigate this matter further.

It has come to my attention that you are currently in violation of the provisions outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2, which mandates the blocking of such information within four business days of receipt of the consumer 's request.

To my dismay, it has been well over 30 days since my initial request for the blocking of the disputed information, and no action has been taken to address this matter. As a victim of identity theft, I assert my rights under the aforementioned law and demand the immediate deletion of the following accounts from my consumer report : Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b, it is clearly stated that a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only in accordance with the written instruction of the consumer to whom it relates.

Any reporting done without my explicit written consent is an act of identity theft.
