Consumer Narrative
REF. ) : Account # XXXX YOU BROKE THE LAW & ARE IN VIOLATION OF THE FDCPA Pursuant to 15 usc 1692 c ( a ), you must have my direct consent and written instruction to contact me in connection of debt collection. NEVER! Did I give such consent or instruction. Also, Id like to make it explicitly clear that ALL debts are ALLEGED Pursuant to 15 usc 1692 ( a ) ( 5 ). Therefore, telling a Natural Person they owe anything is a direct violation of federal law according to the FDCPA! Also, NEVER was I provided with the 5 things that are REQUIRED under Federal Law in connection with collection of this alleged debt, Pursuant to 15 usc 1692 g ( a ) 1-5 after your initial communication. Id also like to point out the use of the term loan, this term is not defined anywhere under Federal Law! So why is XXXX XXXX using such terms? It is illegal and highly unethical to use terms that will mislead the consumer. I must understand every credit transaction & XXXX XXXX has yet to provide such clarity. Making any loan null and void According to True Accord they received my private personal identifying information from Affirm INC. NEVER! Did I give affirm such authorization or written instruction to communicate to a third party my private information or be contacted by said third party Pursuant to 15 usc 1692 ( c ) ( a ). I have a right to privacy! Which both parties are in violation of those rights. Since I did not give True Accord my private identifying information directly, I will be treating this as Identity Theft which is illegal Pursuant to Federal Law! Pursuant to 15 usc 1692 ( j ) it is also a violation of the FDCPA to furnish certain deceptive forms to create the false impression anyone, but the creditor is participating in the collection of a debt. This is apparent when continuing to coerce me to make payment payable to XXXX XXXX who I NEVER did business with nor whom was present for said alleged obligation. It is becoming abundantly clear of XXXX XXXX gross negligence in complying with XXXX XXXX. All debt collectors must comply with the FDCPA and are liable for All violations pursuant 15 usc 1692 K! XXXX XXXX has violated my federally protected rights and are liable for said violations In the amount of {$5000.00}!. I expect a check be sent to the abovementioned name and address you have on file in the amount of {$5000.00} no later than 7 days after receiving these communications & all communications with me going forward shall cease and desist. The account you have in my name be deleted and any obligations be Zeroed Out completely. If I do not receive my check & deletion of all alleged obligations. I will use every resource available to me to collect remedy not limited to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Attached is an invoice payable to my name.
