Complaint narrative:
Notice To Agent Is Notice To Principle Notice to Principle Is Notice To Agent RE : Violations of Consumer Laws and FTC laws/guidelines To whom it may concern, BE ADVISED, this is not a refusal to pay. I dont accept or deny this debt account, and this is not a request of validation of this debt account. Im writing you to let you know that youve violated FTC laws/guidelines and my consumer rights. 
According to the Gramm-Leach-and-Bliley, Also known a

s the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, Debt collectors are Financial Institutions. Why is this important? Let me explain. According to 15 USC 6802- Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information, ( a ) Notice requirements Except as otherwise provided in this subchapter, a financial institution may not, directly or through any affiliate, disclose to a nonaffiliated third party any nonpublic personal information, unless such financial institution provides or has provided to the consumer a notice that complies with section 6803 of this title. 
( b ) Opt out ( 1 ) In general A financial institution may not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party unless ( A ) such financial institution clearly and conspicuously discloses to the consumer, in writing or in electronic form or other form permitted by the regulations prescribed under section 6804 of this title, that such information may be disclosed to such third party ; ( B ) the consumer is given the opportunity, before the time that such information is initially disclosed, to direct that such information not be disclosed to such third party ; and ( C ) the consumer is given an explanation of how the consumer can exercise that nondisclosure option. Purchase agreements, are different from debt validations. 

Your company has not given me two of the three legal disclosures a Financial Institution. I never received a disclosure letting me know I direct that such information not be disclosed to my consumer report, and I never received a disclosure giving me an explanation of how to exercise this right. 

That means you created an account, using my non-public social security number, on my behalf without Permissible Purpose ( my written instructions ). This also means you knowingly possessed and transferred information to my consumer report without lawful authority to do so, which constitutes as IDENTITY THEFT! I AM ALREADY GOING THROUGH AN IDENITY THEFT SITUATION. I AM SICK OF YOU THIRD PARTY COMPANIES ACTIVLEY HELPING ENABLE IDENITY THEFT. 
I AM NOW FACING IDENITY THEFT BY A PROFESSIONAL FRAUDSTOR, AND YOU GUYS ARE NO DIFFERENT.

Due to you not having Permissible Purpose to report anything to my consumer report, you are also in violation of 15 USC 1681N -Civil Liability for Willful Noncompliance . 
a ) In general Any person who willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) ( A ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00} ; or ( B ) in the case of liability of a natural person for obtaining a consumer report under false pretenses or knowingly without a Permissible Purpose, actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or {$1000.00}, whichever is greater ; ( 2 ) such amount of punitive damages as the court may allow ; and ( 3 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. 

If this account is sold or reassigned, I will still hold you accountable for using, possessing and transferring my information and I will seek Damages and/or Violations of {$1000.00} per violation for : NEGLIGENT ENABLEMENT OF IDENTITY THEFT DEFAMATION OF CREDIT WORTHINESS DEFMATION OF CREDIT CAPACITY DEFMATION OF CHARACTER AGGRAVATED IDENTITY THEFT per 15 USC 1028 VIOLATION OF 15 USC 6801- Protection of Nonpublic personal information VIOLATION OF 15 USC 6802- Obligations with respect to disclosures of personal information VIOLATIONS OF 15 USC 6803- Disclosure of institution privacy policy DAMAGES PER FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC 1681N DAMAGES PER FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT 15 USC 1681O Mental Anguish VIOLATIONS OF 15 USC 1692 and ALL of its Chapters and subsections Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act ( Chapter 93A ) forbids unfair or deceptive practices by businesses and allows consumers to seek remedies for resulting harm.

Some are partial account file since you guys have failed to provide occurrence information, im pretty sure you guys prob dont even know the so called account numbers anyways. 

Resurgent LVNV- Partial Account file # XXXX I am willing to settle for XXXX if you do not delete these accounts and you do not have to pay attorney fees, or we can add my consumer lawyer to the situation and under FCRA you will pay him as well. YOUR CHOICE. Failing to abide by the law will only lead to more legal fees, i have been seeking medical treatment, and the bills are only getting higher. 

I expect a settlement offer within 10 days of this notice or further legal action will be initiated. I have enclosed copies of you guys failing to abide to the law. Sending me irrelevant stall tactic letters. I AM SICK OF THIS. 

You guys have been giving me the runaround for quite some time. You are only helping me and my lawyer continue to build cases against you guys. 
Please note, I am asking for this account to be deleted, not closed. 

You guys XXXX XXXXXXXX, you told me to not show up to a court date, specifically the court day where i requested a motion to vacate judegment against me. I ended up actually showing up to the court day, and you guys still failed to prove the debt, and cancelled the court day by not even having me on the lawyers list to address my motion to vacate. VERY MANIPULATIVE AND DECEPTIVE. NOW I AM LAWYERED UP AND AWARE OF THE XXXX  TACTIC YOU GUYS USED. The judge dismissed the case. You guys will not silence me no more. I made it clear to you guys in writing and proved my protected social security income. You guys are cold and heartless.

My lawyer and I are willing to take this to court, we have so much evidence against you. the choice is really yours. You guys will be paying for my lawyer fees according to FCRA.
