    I am writing to formally dispute the account listed under account number ********************** - ********, which appears on my credit report. This account was opened without my knowledge or authorization and is the result of fraudulent activity. I have no recollection of applying for or entering into any agreement with CAINE & WEINER.Pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (15 U.S.C. 1692g), I am requesting full validation of this alleged debt. To date, I have not received any documentationsuch as a signed agreementdemonstrating that I consented to or am legally responsible for this account. Without such evidence, there is no legitimate basis for this account to be associated with my name.Because this account was fraudulently established, I request its immediate removal from my credit report and that all collection efforts cease. If you are unable to provide the required validation within 30 days of receiving this notice, you are legally obligated to delete the account from all credit records and discontinue further collection activity.Please confirm receipt of this letter in writing and advise me of any next steps you intend to take to resolve this matter.
