Consumer Narrative
I XXXX XXXX the natural person and consumer as defined by the FDCPA 15 USC 1692 ( a ) ( XXXX ) who is submitting this complaint on my own behalf there is no third party involved. Weltman Weinberg & Reis Co. LPA have invaded my right to privacy by sending a letter received on or about XX/XX/2022 which was dated XX/XX/2022 stating that the consumer owes a debt. Weltman is a debt collector as defined by the FDCPA 15 USC 1692a ( 6 ) and has violated the FDCPA. The receipt of this communication was at a very inconvenient time and was an attempt to harass me to coerce a payment of an alleged obligation by way of intended misrepresentation. The receipt of such document is misleading and it appears to be from an attorney which is a violation of 15 usc 1692 ( e ) ( 3 ). Pursuant 15 USC 1692 ( c ) ( a ) I have never given this company my direct consent to contact me or to have my personal information.This is a huge invasion of my right privacy. It is clear that this company has violated the FDCPA and intentionally attempting to deceive I the consumer. This is an alleged obligation. Farther more this company has no rights to collect any amount. UCC 9-109 clearly states such action is prohibited being that this account was transferred for the sole purpose of collecting only and Weltman is a debt collector. I do not give you permission to take any legal action against me. The attached exhibit was mailed to this company on XX/XX/2022 and delivered by XXXX certified mail which was picked up on XX/XX/2022.
