After reviewing my credit report, I have found inaccuracies and potential violations of federal consumer protection laws, specifically under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ). I demand that you provide substantiating documentation to validate the reporting or immediately delete these accounts from my credit report.

Legal Basis for My Dispute 1. Inaccurate Reporting Under FCRA ( 611, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ) The FCRA mandates that all information reported to consumer reporting agencies must be complete, accurate, and verifiable. This account, as currently listed, contains inaccuracies that are damaging to my creditworthiness.

I request that you conduct a thorough investigation into the accuracy of this information, as required by 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ). If you can not provide verifiable proof that the account is being reported correctly, you must delete the account pursuant to FCRA guidelines.
