Was a 1099-C filed on this account? If so, I have never received one.

If XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX mailed me a 1099-C, please provide documentary evidence, such as a tracking number, that proves that I in fact received and was aware of a 1099-C. Knowingly furnishing this false and misleading charge off to my consumer report is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2.

I am aware and I am invoking my right as the consumer to demand the money audit trail in accordance with 12 U.S. Code 5562 ( c ) ( 10 ). I would need this product of document material as documentary evidence in order to properly address this subject matter and without this documentary evidence there can be no validation of such debt.

Furthermore, in order to validate the debt, please provide verification through audit certification of debt entry in accordance with XXXX, IRS, in accordance with XXXX XXXX, and XXXX conversions.
