Date Assigned XX/XX/XXXX Account Number XXXX XXXX with an alleged Amount Owed {$320.00} This account is only shown on XXXX and not on XXXX or XXXX which shows a big discrepancy between the credit bureau. The federal Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) promotes the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in the files of consumer reporting agencies. This inaccurate reporting is negatively impacting my good name, character, and ability to qualify for new credit. As a consumer, I have a right to accurate and fair reporting of my credit history, and this discrepancy is creating an unfair and inaccurate representation of my creditworthiness. 

Again please remove this account immediately from my credit report and also provide me a copy of my new credit report reflecting this account removed upon completion. I am requesting that your company provide me with debt validation and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ( HIPAA ) authorization Be advised, this is NOT a request for 'verification '' or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to 15 USC 1692g et seq. of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ''.
