Consumer Complaint: Was informed by XXXX that company sold debt to Jefferson Capital. A debt validation letter was sent to this XXXX explaining that Consumer was the Original Creditor and to produce a contract between Consumer and them that gives them grounds for collecting a debt form Consumer ( U.S vs Throckmarton, 98 US 61, at pg. 65 ) Consumer has no contract with this thirds party debt collector. XXXX continues to violate FCRA 15 USC 1692g by ignoring my right to privacy and continues to furnish and Report Old Information. XXXX failed to let Consumer know how much the debt was sold for, and if the debt was assigned to a third party, Jefferson Capital and the Consumer have a right to know what their commission. A Cease and Desist Letter was also sent to XXXX 15 USC 1692C ( b ). Consumer is not allowed to have or purchase Consumer information without consent. This is an infringement upon Consumer Right To Privacy. XXXX states " This is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used to do so ''. 15 USC 1692e ( 11 ).

Consumer Complaint: I have been working diligently on my credit repair. I have found battle after battle, and still feel like I'm be frauded. I received in the mail a bill from Jefferson Capitol saying I owe on a cell phone bill to my current cell phone company. I do not have any delinquent debt with them. I called and they told me they would issue a dispute. Now I get another letter stating they want my ss # account # description of error and explanation of why I believe there is an error, dollar amount in question, date of suspected error, cope of the credit report with their trade line. I again called them and they told me, ok, we will stop collections, and will not report on my credit reports.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Subissue: Debt is not yours
Consumer Complaint: I received a letter from debt collector, XXXX. I called XXXX because I am in complete disagreement that I owe any debt. XXXX told me that they had no information regarding the debt other than they were directed to collect the debt. The debt description was " XXXX '' on the letter, I called XXXX to research and understand the debt. XXXX went through their records and found that I have NEVER owed any money to XXXX, there has never been any debt owed from me to XXXX. So I called Jefferson Capital who claimed to have purchased the debt from XXXX and then redirected the debt to XXXX. Jefferson Capital was adamant that I owed them the debt and that regardless what XXXX said, my debt had been sold to Jefferson Capital. Jefferson Capital claims they sent me a letter in XX/XX/2021 to collect the debt and I never responded. So now in XX/XX/2021 I received a letter from XXXX to collect the debt. I immediately reached out to XXXX to understand what the debt was all about. I completely disagree with this debt and collection - I have no credit with XXXX, never have. I believe Jefferson Capital is acting fraudulently claiming I owe debt that I do not.
