This request is made under the privacy protections afforded to me by 15 U.S. Code 6802.

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am entitled to dispute any information that I believe to be erroneous. If you do not cease reporting this account, I am formally requesting Proper Validation and Proof of Claim as per the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I seek comprehensive validation of the alleged debt, including evidence establishing that I am the party obligated to settle this debt and that there exists a legally binding contractual obligation compelling me to do so. 

For clarity, I request that all communication be limited to written correspondence until adequate validation of the purported debt is provided. To assist you in meeting this request, please furnish the following required documentation : 1. A copy of the original contract or agreement under which the debt arose.

2. A detailed account statement showing the amount of the debt, including any fees or interest.

3. Date of Last Activity.

4. Full, accurate social security number that may help to identify me as the correct person you are trying to collect from.

5. Documentation confirming that you have the legal right to collect this debt.

6. Any correspondence related to this account that includes my signature or consent.

I demand that you take the following actions : 1. Immediately cease reporting the collection account associated with my name. 

2. Confirm in writing within 15 days that this account has been deleted from all credit reporting agencies or provide the requested validation. Please understand that failure to comply with this request may result in further actions on my part, including but not limited to filing a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and seeking legal remedies to protect my rights.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: Apelles, LLC
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing a debt with APELLES and requested full validation of this debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), as allowed by 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809. I formally requested detailed documentation to prove the validity of this debt, including a copy of the original agreement, itemized statements showing any additional fees, and proof that APELLES has the authority to collect this debt on behalf of the creditor. Despite my request, I have not received adequate validation documentation as required by law, and they have continued collection efforts. Additionally, if this debt is reported to the credit bureaus, I am concerned that it may appear as inaccurate information on my credit report, potentially violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Any attempt to report this debt without validation would not only be misleading but also an infringement of my rights under both the FDCPA and FCRA.

I am filing this complaint to request assistance from the CFPB in ensuring that APELLES provides full validation documentation before any further collection efforts or reporting to credit bureaus continue.
