3. Accuracy and Verification Request : I am requesting that the CFPB assist in compelling the furnisher ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to verify the full details of this account, including : How the charge-off amount was calculated. 

A copy of any charge-off notice provided to me.

4. Potential Misreporting of Status : Given the account activity into XXXX, I question whether the current charge-off status is correct or premature, and request that this be re-examined. 



I have attached a copy of the account summary and relevant identifying information for your review. 

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter. 

Sincerely, [ Your Full Name ] XXXX XXXX [ Date of Birth ] XXXX  Last XXXX of XXXX : [ XXXX ]

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am reporting a collection account from XXXX XXXX XXXX  that is not mine. The original creditor is listed as XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. I never attended this school and never opened or authorized any account with them.

I have contacted all three credit reporting agencies and formally disputed this account, requesting validation of the debt.

In XXXX of 2012, we settled a debt with Navy Federal Credit Union through XXXX XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$7400.00}. We received a letter confirming receipt of payment and that the debt was settled in full. 

Over the past XXXX  years, we have been contacted by several different collection agencies or law firms attempting to collect the debt.

We continue to be harassed and threatened periodically with litigation as these various companies attempt to collect a debt that has already been paid, which is a direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. 

Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.
