The details being reported are inaccurate, misleading, incomplete, and unverified. Youre publishing negative information thats damaging my credit, my financial reputation, and my ability to secure fair credit. I'm demanding that you immediately reinvestigate these accounts. If you cant provide hard documentary evidence to support every single detail, you must delete the tradelineno exceptions. I've already raised this matter with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the Virginia State Attorney General, XXXX XXXX.

Notice of Liability If you dont remove these accounts within four business days, Ill take legal action. I will bring claims for inaccurate reporting, failing to complete a proper reinvestigation, failing to provide Method of Verification, illegal reinsertion, and for continuing to report unverifiable items. Reporting inaccurate, incomplete, unverifiable, or unlawfully reinserted accounts could mean you willfully or negligently violated the law. That exposes you to real liability under FCRA 616617 and FDCPA 813. Final Demand I want full validation or deletionnothing less. Youve got four business days from the day you get this letter to remove these accounts or I will sue. Only respond in writing. If you cant provide complete lawful verification, full Method of Verification, and ironclad proof you followed the reinsertion rules for Account 1, delete these accounts right away. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
