Stat . 501.204 ( 1 ), 501.203 ( 3 ) ( c ), 501.211 FCCPA : Fla. Stat. 559.72 ( 9 ) I am formally disputing the reporting of the alleged XXXX XXXX account ( Acct. 
# XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX opened XX/XX/year>, last reported XXXX ) as reflected in my credit file. This reporting is inaccurate, misleading, and unverifiable at its source. Child support enforcement agencies do not furnish data directly to the nationwide credit reporting agencies ; therefore, the bureaus are relying on unverified third-party data. Continued reporting violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and 1681i, which require that only accurate, complete, and verifiable information be maintained and that unverifiable entries be deleted. This entry also violates the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ) and XXXX XXXX Compliance Standards , which prohibit the processing of misleading or incomplete consumer data. Additionally, any continued reporting of this account as a collection or government claim after the balance has been paid/closed with {$0.00} liability constitutes false representation and violates the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C.

1692e.

Under Florida law, this reporting also violates the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act ( FCCPA, Fla. Stat. 559.72 ), which prohibits furnishing false, deceptive, or misleading information regarding a consumer debt. Further, it constitutes an unfair or deceptive act under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act ( FDUTPA, Fla. Stat. 501.204 ), as the continued reporting of a closed and satisfied obligation misrepresents my financial history and harms my ability to obtain credit. Since this account is reported as paid/closed with a {$0.00} balance, any reference to delinquency, default, or ongoing support obligations is materially inaccurate and misleading.

I hereby demand the immediate deletion of this account from all of my credit files maintained by TransUnion, Experian, and Equifax. If you fail to remove this unverifiable and inaccurate entry within the statutory timeframe, I will escalate the matter by filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Florida Attorney Generals Office, and pursue civil remedies under 15 U.S.C. 1681n, Fla. Stat. 559.77, and Fla. Stat. 501.211 for damages, attorneys fees, and injunctive relief.
