Method of Verification ( FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 2 ) ) I demand that you provide me with : 1. The name, address, and contact information of the entity that verified this account.

2. The exact method used to verify the listed accounts legitimacy.

3. A detailed explanation, including the date and parties involved in your investigation. 

If you can not provide this documentation, this account must be permanently deleted from my credit report immediately, as required under FCRA 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( A ). Debt Validation ( FDCPA 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ) ) Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15 U.
S.C. 1692g, I demand that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX provide me with : 1. The original signed contract or agreement bearing my signature, proving I authorized this debt.

2. A full itemized accounting of the alleged debt, including principal, interest, fees, and payments made.

3. Proof of their legal authority to collect on this debt.

Since I never authorized this company to obtain my personal information, their furnishing of this account to the credit bureaus without my consent violates FCRA 1681b ( f ) and constitutes an unauthorized, unlawful furnishing of data.

Demand for Immediate Deletion As per FCRA 1681c ( a ) and FCRA 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ), unverified and inaccurate accounts must be promptly deleted. If you fail to remove this unverifiable account, you will be in willful noncompliance with federal law, and I will seek legal remedies, including statutory and actual damages under FCRA 1681n.

Failure to comply within 30 days from receipt of this letter will leave me no choice but to escalate these matters to the the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and legal action in federal court. 

This letter serves as formal notice under the FCRA and FDCPA. I expect a response confirming the permanent deletion of this account. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
