Consumer Narrative
Re : Debt Dispute - Violation of 15 U.S.C. 1692c XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX IL, XXXX XXXX Accounts XXXX XXXX / Account number XXXX XX/XX/XXXX/ Account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX I am writing to formally dispute the debt listed under the account numbers listed above, that you are attempting to collect on. Under 15 U.S.C. 1692c, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I am requesting that you cease and desist from communicating with me about this alleged debt via any means, including but not limited to phone calls, mail, or electronic communication. I believe this debt may be inaccurate or otherwise not mine, and I request verification of the debt, including documentation proving that I owe the debt and the correct amount, as outlined in 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( a ). Additionally, under 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ), once a consumer has notified a debt collector in writing to cease communication, they are prohibited from continuing to contact the consumer, except under specific circumstances. Therefore, I expect no further communications from you unless you are providing me with the required verification documents as requested. Please note that if you do not comply with these regulations or continue to attempt to collect on this debt without providing verification, I will consider pursuing further action, including but not limited to filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my states Attorney General office. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
