It is a fact that I provided a cash down payment in the amount of {$2300.00}, however per 15 USC 1605a no cash down payment can be collected when there is a finance charge. Pursuant to 15 USC 1662b it is illegal to require a down payment in conjunction with an extension of consumer credit.

Once you obtained my SSN you accepted my ( Credit Card ) as payment. SSN belongs to the SSA And anything purchased with that identifier number Is an obligation of the United States. It is a Fact that the Pursuant of 18 U.S.C. 8 Means that your are in Violation of The False Claims Act ( FCA ), 31 U.S.C. 3729 - 3733.

I was forced to obtain insurance misrepresenting the voluntary nature of add-on products. 

The members of XXXX XXXX XXXX staff did not even disclose that insurance was to be included with the finance charge, they just called XXXX insurance company on my behalf and made me contract with them separately. This is a violation of what is written in this law.
