This will serve as your legal notice under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), to cease all communications with me in regard to the alleged debt, referenced above. Do not contact me or any third parties via telephone, email, or mail regarding collection of this alleged debt. I formally dispute the validity of this alleged debt. To date, I never received due notice, of any alleged debt, or my right to dispute. Despite never receiving such notice, in violation of FCRA and FDCPA, as of November 2023, DRS has illegally reported an illegitimate collection account, which is stated to have been opened in June 2023, to my credit reports, causing insurmountable damage to my credit score. Since this fraudulent account was reported, my credit score dropped 30 points, and has currently eradicated my ability to obtain a mortgage. I was a victim of identity theft, and had DRS followed the law, by sending me notification of this alleged debt, and allowed me the opportunity to dispute, I would have responded within 30 days, and provided proof of the several FTC reports, and the current fraud alerts on my credit report, showing I was a victim of identity theft. I was not even aware of any alleged debt with Cash Net USA existing, until DRS erroneously reported this account to my credit report. I have had a plethora of fraudulent accounts opened in my name, that I did not initiate. I do not owe this debt or any debt to DRS, LLC or to any third party DRS, LLC is stating to represent, nor did I have any knowledge of the alleged account. I am formally requesting DRS to immediately remove the fraudulent reporting information from my account, especially as DRS has violated several consumer laws, in order to report If the adverse information placed against my credit reports is not removed within 4 business days, appropriate legal action will be taken.Business Response

On my credit report this company DRS has furnished an account #************ for an alleged debt that is not mine. I work for a medical facility so why would I have debt with one. Doesn't make sense. I have asked this company to send me proper evidence relating to me and I have not received anything which is over 60 days now. Ive also noticed they are located in ********. Ive never been to ******** so I couldn't possibly have debt with a company up there. Also, how can i possibly have a balance on an account ive never signed for. I've already been denied for a home loan because of this account so I would like for them to remove it from all credit reporting agencies.Business Response

I have disputed the accounts that Debt Reccovery Solutions is currently reporting on my report. They responded by telling me that they will notify the CRA'S and have the acounts removed. Well they never did! I want these accounts deleted from my report because they are causing great damage to me. I don't know who Debt Recovery Solutions is and have never done business with this company. I have expressed this concern and still they have ignored. This is negligent and might I add they are violating my consumer rights. DRS/CheckNgo: Account# *********DRS/Advance America: Account#*********Business Response
