Company: American Profit Recovery, Inc., Marlborough, MA Branch
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I XXXX XXXX am writing to file a formal complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) against American Profit Recovery regarding a debt purportedly owed to XXXX XXXX. I recently reviewed my credit report and noticed that American Profit Recovery is reporting this debt. However, I have never received any documentation to validate the alleged debt, as required under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ). 
According to the FDCPA, a consumer has the right to request validation of a debt, and debt collectors are obligated to cease collection activities until they provide proper validation. Failure to provide this documentation constitutes a violation of federal law. To date, American Profit Recovery has failed to fulfill this obligation. 
Due to the lack of documentation confirming the validity of this debt, I request the following actions : 1. Cease Reporting the Debt to Credit Reporting Agencies : Since the debt has not been validated, American Profit Recovery must remove any references to this account from my credit report with all three major credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ). 
2. Provide Proper Validation : If American Profit Recovery wishes to continue pursuing this debt, they must provide a detailed validation, including : o The original agreement or contract with Spring Green. 
o An itemized statement of the alleged debt. 
o Proof that American Profit Recovery has the authority to collect this debt. 
I expect American Profit Recovery to address this matter promptly and in compliance with the law. Should American Profit Recovery fail to comply, I am prepared to escalate this complaint further.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
