Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX SSN : XXXX DOB : XX/XX/XXXX Date : XX/XX/XXXX To : NRA Group LLC XXXX National Recovery Agency XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXXXXXX Re : Collection Account # XXXX {$880.00} To Whom It May Concern : This is a formal dispute of the above-referenced account under my rights per the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). 

Upon reviewing my credit report, your company is reporting unverified and legally insufficient information. You are obligated under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( FCRA ) and 1681s-2 ( FCRA furnisher obligations ) to investigate and only furnish accurate, verifiable information.

Let me be clear a bill or statement is NOT validation. Under 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), proper validation requires the original signed contract, a complete accounting, and documented proof that you have the legal right to collect. Anything else fails to meet that legal standard. 

You are hereby required to produce : The original signed contract or agreement bearing my signature. 
A full flow sheet/chain of ownership, including all assignments or transfers from the original creditor to your company, with dates and balances at each stage. 
A complete accounting and itemized breakdown of the alleged balance. 
Proof of your licensing and authorization to collect in Arizona. 
Failure to provide this documentation constitutes reporting unverified information, violating 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( false or misleading representations ), 1692f ( unfair practices ), and 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ( maximizing accuracy ). You must therefore : Immediately delete this account from my credit report with all bureaus ( XX/XX/XXXX ). 
Cease all collection activity related to this alleged debt. 
Provide written confirmation of deletion to me. 
If you do not comply within 30 days of receipt, I will escalate this via complaints to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and the Arizona Attorney Generals office. I will also pursue legal action and statutory damages under 15 U.S.C. 1681n & 1681o. 
I expect your full compliance and written confirmation of account deletion within the legal timeframe. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I am addressing the issue with regarding the noncompliance. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not, that is considered identity theft. As per the Fair Credit Reporting Act, particularly under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, there exists statutory civil liability for willful noncompliance.
