Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX IL XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XX/XX/202XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX UT XXXX Subject : Formal Dispute of Charge-Off Account Reporting Associated with Account Number ( XXXX ) Dear XXXX XXXX XXXX , I am writing to formally dispute the reporting of the charge-off account associated with [ XXXX ] on my credit report. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Reinvestigation of Disputed Information ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( Responsibilities of Furnishers of Information ), I am entitled to request and receive complete and accurate documentation to verify the accuracy and legality of this accounts reporting. 
Additionally, under Illinois law, I am requesting proper validation of this debt. 
To properly validate this account, I am requesting the following : 1. Authenticated Double-Entry Accounting Records : I am requesting full double-entry accounting records for the account mentioned. This should include a detailed breakdown that shows how all transactions were debited and credited, ensuring compliance with standard accounting principles. Please note that I do not wish to receive a simple list of charges or statements. I expect authenticated evidence of the debt. 

2. Authenticated Evidence Based on [ Your State ] Law : In addition to the accounting records, I require authenticated evidence, in compliance with Illinois debt collection laws, that you have the legal right to report and collect This debt. This includes original signed contracts or agreements that show my obligation to pay the debt and your legal right to enforce collection and report it to credit bureaus. 
Without this evidence, the continued reporting of this debt may constitute a violation of both federal and state consumer protection laws. 

3. 1099-C Form : If this debt has been forgiven, canceled, or settled for less than the full balance, I am requesting a copy of the 1099-C form filed with the IRS, which is required if the amount of canceled debt exceeds {$600.00}. If you have not provided this documentation, the debt may be considered discharged, and it should no longer be reported as owed on my credit report. 


In the absence of the requested documentation and verifiable evidence, I request that you immediately delete this account from my credit report in compliance with the FCRA and Illinois state law. Failure to do so will result in further action, including filing formal complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), pursuing legal remedies to enforce my rights, and submitting a Suspicious Activity Report ( SAR ) to the IRS for suspicion of fraud. 
The SAR ( FinCEN Form 111 ) will be filed if you continue reporting inaccurate and unverified information without providing the required documentation. Please respond within 30 days of receipt of this letter. I look forward to receiving the required documentation or confirmation that the account has been deleted. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
