Consumer Complaint: Hello, to whom it may concern my name is XXXX XXXX XXXX consumer ). I am A federally protected consumer s defined by 15 U.S.C. 1692a ( 3 ) that resigns in Utah ; I would like to thank you for the opportunity to let me address my concerns regarding the third party ; I.C. system ( I.C. ) Debt collector define in 15 usc 1692a, engaged in the business of a collection agency, using telephone & mail to collect consumer debts for profit, I.C. has infringed upon my rights to privacy under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, ( FDCPA ) 15 U.S.C. 1692 ( a ). On XX/XX/XXXX I entered a consumer credit transaction with XXXX XXXX with my accepted credit card presume to 15 usc 1602 a ( I ) under the Truth in Lending Act. The Debt was primarily for personal, family or household purposes and is therefore a debt as defined by 15 U.S.C. 1692a ( 5 ) In the initial communication XXXX XXXX as failed to disclose who they are, and what their initial intentions were to attempt to collect a debt, failure to disclose this information is a violation under 15 usc 1692e ( 11 ). I XXXX XXXX ( consumer ) Have noticed XXXX XXXX has took a Tax write off on this Charge off account and sold the Debt to I.C. system. I.C then took my information, furnished an alleged debt for {$800.00} to the consumer reporting agency without my prior consent. I.C. system ( debt collector ) has communicated with me in connection with the collection of a debt which is a violation Under the FDCPA 15 usc 1692c ( a ) I would like to ask how my location information was acquired, and who provided you consent to communicate with I ( consumer ) which I would like I.C system to provide me my written consent of such action, If the request can not be provided, this will be in direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( a ). During my initial communication with I.C. system I requested the debt collector to provide me validation of debt, whom the Original creditor was on that debt and to Cease all further collection efforts regarding to the accounts under federal law 15 usc 1692C ( c ). On XX/XX/XXXX I.C. systems have communicated with me defined by 15 usc 1692 ( 2 ) with Statements not respecting the validation request I asked for and the cease & desist request I made clearly with them. This letter was misleading and confusing because it fails to provide the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed. This form provided information that would allow the least sophisticated consumer to determine the minimum amount that i owed at the time of the receipt of the letter. This letter failed to provide information that would allow, I to determine what will I need to pay to resolve the debt at the time of the receipt of the letter also this letter failed to provide information that would allow the least sophisticated consumer to detriment the amount of billing fees owed and whether any additional billing fees will be added, the date they be added, & the amount that be added. The tender of an illusory settlement is a deceptive means to attempt to coerce a payment from the debtor. .I.C. system used symbols other than the debt collectors address on envelope, which a debt collector may only use the business name if such name does not indicate that he is in the debt collection business. Which is a violation of 15 usc 1692F ( 8 ). Also I.C. system have accused me ( consumer ) of this alleged debt which is a violation under federal law 15 usc 1692b ( 1 ) ( 2 ) I.C. system has harassed me to coerce payment on a debt that they have advertised to me which has ruined my reputation by furnishing my information publicly without my consent this Is a violation of 15 usc 1692d ( 1 ) ( 4 ) I have found in my investigation that I.C. has claimed the original creditor was XXXX XXXX which in fact this firm was just the creditor of the credit sale. The failure of a consumer to dispute the validity of a debt under this section may not be construed by any court as an admission of liability by the consumer. This is the 2nd time I have disputed the validity of this debt, and for this debt collector to cease further Communication with me through any median. I have sent my document to them certified mail with return recipe to keep a file, if litigation process is needed. I the original creditor I am requesting actual and statutory damages brought by Defendant I.C. system for violating the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICE ACT, 15 U.S.C 1692 et seq Which prohibits debt collectors from engaging in abusive, deceptive, and unfair debt collection practices this is a violation of 15 usc 1692g ( 5 ). I request all further collection efforts against I XXXX XXXX XXXX regarding the accounts and any negative credit reporting be removed of any database. In addition, to the damages I am requesting XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to settle. If this offer is not accepted, my next step will be taking this case to legal proceeding to litigation.

Consumer Complaint: Legal Department, I am a victim of identity-theft. I am writing to request that you block all the following fraudulent accounts in my files with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX This information does not relate to any transactions I made. I did not authorize anyone to use my personal information. I hereby exercise my legal rights enacted by Congress and The Federal Trade Commission, which explicitly states when a victim files an affidavit it shall be honored by all credit bureaus and all fraudulent information must be blocked within 4 days and proper notification shall be given to all furnishers pursuant to section 605b of The Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. Failure to comply shall lead to complaints being filed with The XXXX XXXX XXXX, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and Attorney General with legal action of your companys unlawful collection practices, misrepresentation of reporting inaccurate debts, and noncompliance to adhere to laws enacted to help who are victims of identity-theft. I request that an extend fraud alert be placed in my file explaining that fraudulent applications may be submitted in my name. Do not extend credit without first contacting me personally and verifying all applications. Furthermore, as victim of identity-theft I received notification that my personal information was compromise in the several different data breaches. It has made it difficult to resolve this matter in a timely fashion. I have made several attempts to resolve this. If action is not taken to properly assist me with this matter within 15 days. I shall file a class action lawsuit for violating the FCRA and FDCPA violations are as follows not limited to reporting inaccurate information, reporting information that resulted from crime ( s ) and/or crime ( s ) of identity-theft, unlawfully collections of debt, calling after designated hours by law, defamation of character, and misrepresentation of true credit worthiness. I ask that all fraudulent information listed below be removed without question. I have fraudulent accounts, employers, misspellings of my name, and address that are associated with crimes that were committed against me. Once deleting all fraudulent information, you acknowledge that it is indeed fraudulent and resulted from crimes of identity-theft. By doing so you adhere to the FCRA that make it unlawful of any, some, or all information to be transferred, sold to another collection agency or reinserted one 's credit report once it is deemed as fraudulent. You also understand in order to reinsert information to a consumers credit report notification must be given 5 days prior to reinsertion. Failure to comply will also be a violation of the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act and Fair Debt Collection Practice. The below-listed accounts by the Original Creditors, who have reported these accounts within my credit reports, were not opened by me. I also did not give my authorization for anyone else to open these accounts. Someone else of who did these that I did not know. Policy states. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C 1681 ), Procedure In Case of Disputed Accuracy. ( a ) Reinvestigation ( 1 ) Reinvestigation ( a ) In general. Subject to Subsection ( f ), if the completeness or accuracy of any item of information contained in a consumers file at a consumer agency is disputed by the consumer and the consumer notifies the agency directly, or indirectly through a reseller, of a such dispute, free of charge, conduct a reasonable reinvestigation to determine whether the disputed information is inaccurate and record the current status of the disputed information, or delete the item from the file in accordance with paragraph ( 5 ), before the end of the 30-day period beginning on the date on which the agency receives the notice of the dispute from the consumer or reseller. Therefore, my position is being clearly stated, these accounts do not belong to me, meaning that you are reporting inaccurate account information within my credit file. The fact that these are inaccurate account information means that you, this credit-reporting agency, are reporting incorrect accounts. Finally, you are reporting the INQUIRIES that are the result of the same type of fraudulent activities. It must be noted that I did not apply for credit accounts with the below-listed companies and creditors, some of these are the result of attempts to open accounts, but the companies did not approve the accounts. Therefore, these inquiries must be deleted from within my credit file. You can not delete the fraudulently opened accounts without also deleting the fraudulent inquiries. It should be noted that an inquiry that was not made by me is not a factual record, just as a fraudulently opened account is not a factual record and not referred to the creditor to be disputed directly with them. The credit reporting agencies have attempted to address an inquiry as a factual record of file access, but if it was done through fraudulent means, it is not a factual record. As a consumer I should not be required to dispute each fraudulent inquiry directly with each company. These inquiries are the result of fraudulent activity and therefore, inaccurate in which the credit reporting agencies or the creditors can not verify, meaning that these inquiries are unverifiable information and must be deleted from out go my credit files. 1. I C SYSTEM bal. {$50.00} I am well aware of my rights as a consumer. The Fair Credit Reporting Act requires that you, the credit-reporting agency report accurate and/or correct account information within my credit file. My credit issues are very specific, these accounts and/or items do not belong to me. This means that you are reporting incorrect account information within my credit report. It is this in mind that I request that these listed accounts and items be Blocked and Deleted. According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act FCRA, Section 1681c ( 2 ) Block of information resulting from identity-theft. 1.Block. Except as otherwise provided in this section, a consumer reporting shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity-theft, not later than four ( 4 ) business days after the date receipt by such agency of 1.
