I do not recognize this debt and am formally disputing its validity under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) and Regulation F ( 12 CFR Part 1006 ). Additionally, I am requesting full validation of the debt under my rights provided by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

2. Debt Verification : o A breakdown of the debt amount, including principal, interest, fees, and other charges as required under 12 CFR 1006.34 ( c ).

o Proof of a valid contract or agreement establishing the alleged debt and my obligation to pay it.

3. Itemization Date : Provide the specific reference date you used in your itemization ( such as the last statement date, charge-off date, or last payment date ).

6. Cease Collection Until Validation Is Provided : If you can not provide proper validation, I request that you immediately cease all collection activities and remove this account from my credit report.

7. Credit Reporting Requirements : o If this alleged debt is reported to the credit bureaus, I request that it be marked as disputed by consumer per 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 3 ).

o If this debt can not be validated, I demand that it be deleted from my credit report immediately in accordance with the FCRA.

8. o I request confirmation that no negative information will be furnished to the credit bureaus during the validation process, per Regulation F guidance.

Notification to Future Collectors : If you transfer or sell this account to another agency, they must also be informed of my dispute per 12 CFR 1006.30 ( d ) ( 1 ).
