Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: AZ

Complaint narrative:
This company has violated my consumer rights and has defamed my character by attempting to collect an alleged debt and reporting it to consumer reporting agencies. Because of this I could not purchase a home or gain a credit card. I never gave this company my information or endorsed an instrument with them. Pursuant to 12 CFR 1006.6, more specifically subsection ( c ), this is a notice to cease all communications as the Fair debt collection practices act describes it which includes both direct and indirect communication on ANY medium except that you may ONLY communicate with me under the stipulations that you will send me validating information such as the entire purchase agreement ( and other validating data ) and/or to respond to ANY complaints from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( cfpb ). In case this company feigns ignorance, I attached a screenshot of the XXXX website explaining how the FDCPA defines communication. I did not endorse an instrument with Capital One nor have they provided proof that I did with my wet ink signature, they only purchased a contract and are trying to collect without having it endorsed first which violates Uniform Commercial Code 3-203. TRANSFER OF INSTRUMENT ; RIGHTS ACQUIRED BY TRANSFER. Primary tabs ( a ) An instrument is transferred when it is delivered by a person other than its issuer for the purpose of giving to the person receiving delivery the right to enforce the instrument. ( b ) Transfer of an instrument, whether or not the transfer is a negotiation, vests in the transferee any right of the transferor to enforce the instrument, including any right as a holder in due course, but the transferee can not acquire rights of a holder in due course by a transfer, directly or indirectly, from a holder in due course if the transferee engaged in fraud or illegality affecting the instrument. ( c ) Unless otherwise agreed, if an instrument is transferred for value and the transferee does not become a holder because of lack of indorsement by the transferor, the transferee has a specifically enforceable right to the unqualified indorsement of the transferor, but negotiation of the instrument does not occur until the indorsement is made. ( d ) If a transferor purports to transfer less than the entire instrument, negotiation of the instrument does not occur. The transferee obtains no rights under this Article and has only the rights of a partial assignee

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Urgent Request for Removal of Unauthorized and Unverifiable Item from Credit Report - Reference to Federal and Georgia State Laws Dear Caine & Weiner, I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the unauthorized reporting of items on my credit report by your agency. I have never provided consent for Caine & Weiner to access my credit report, and this infringement on my privacy raises serious concerns of identity fraud. 

I want to emphasize that even in cases of permissible purpose, the consumer 's consent is paramount, as outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) ( B ). Additionally, Georgia state law, under Georgia Fair Business Practices Act ( O.C.G.A. 10-1-390 et seq. ), requires consumer consent for such activities. 

I have not granted permission for the inclusion of this item within my consumer profile, rendering the reported item unverifiable. 

I demand the immediate removal of this unauthorized and unverifiable item from my credit report, in accordance with FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) and relevant Georgia state laws. I assert my right to have this matter resolved within 30 days from the receipt of this complaint, as mandated by FCRA Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ( i ) and corresponding Georgia statutes. Failure to comply within this timeframe will be considered willful noncompliance, in violation of FCRA Section 616 and Georgia state law.

Additionally, I request that Caine & Weiner provide a written document from me, the consumer, that explicitly grants permission for your agency to access my consumer profile, as required by FCRA Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( A ) and Georgia law. 

This document should be submitted promptly. I trust that you will address this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves, in compliance with both federal and Georgia state laws. I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue and expect a resolution within the stipulated timeframe. 

Done in good faith.
