My name is XXXX XXXX : My address is XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX VA My XXXX is XXXX Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to bring a serious matter to your attention concerning erroneous collections that is appearing on my credit report. I recently discovered the presence of these collections, and to my utmost surprise, I have no knowledge or information about the debts in question.

I am invoking my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically Section 609, which grants me the right to request validation of any debt that is being reported on my credit file. Section 609 of the FCRA stipulates that upon my request for debt validation, the credit reporting agency and the collection agency must provide me with specific information to verify the legitimacy and accuracy of the debt. 

The erroneous collections I am disputing are listed as follows : Jefferson Capital Systems Inc, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX AL XXXX JCS Reference Number - XXXX Amount of Debt - XXXX Date of Deliquency - Unknown I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau investigate this matter thoroughly and intervene to ensure that these erroneous collections are removed from my credit report promptly. I kindly ask that you initiate the validation process under Section 609 of the FCRA on my behalf and require the collection agency to provide the necessary documentation to substantiate the validity of the debt.

I am concerned about the potential harm to my creditworthiness and financial stability due to these inaccuracies. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request that you keep me informed of the progress of your investigation. Please feel free to contact me at XXXX or via email at XXXX if you require any further information from my end. 

Thank you for your assistance in resolving this issue. I trust that your intervention will help rectify this situation and restore the accuracy of my credit report. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX XXXX XXXX
