I am in receipt of Debt Recovery Solutions letter informing me that they are handling the collection of the account #***************** for $355. However, after reviewing my records, I am unable to find any documentation of any contractual relationship between ****************************** legally listing you/your company as a person/company entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. I mailed & faxed a letter dated April 28, 2023 demanding proof of contract to substantiate Debt Recovery Solutions claim. I legally demanded you/your company to provide me with a certified copy of an original contract, BEARING MY WET SIGNATURE, specifically naming the above company as a person entitled to enforce a commercial claim against me. My legally demanded requested information was ignored. It has been over 30 days which is required under the **** and Debt Recovery Solutions has continued to report this fraudulent and unverifiable item on my Experian, Equifax and Transunion reports. Meanwhile, ignoring the law. Debt Recovery Solutions has NOT provided a underlying credit agreement, no proof of ownership and provided no legal basis to report "late payments" or any information to consumer reporting agencies. As a ramification due to this fraudulent account, I was discriminated against & denied my right to be extended credit. Nevertheless, I have suffered emotional and mental stress because of this false and negative credit bureau reporting.Business Response

I received an alert that an account has been added to my ********** profile. The account added was a collection from ***.I reached out to *** and spoke to a representative explaining that I have no knowledge of this account and that Im a victim of identity theft. She mentioned that the account holder was Cashnet. I explained to the *** customer service representative that *** is now the 3rd company that has purchased my information from the company Cashnet. I explained the two previous companies dismissed the collection due to identity theft. The *** customer service rep informed me to email the previous dismissal and I did.I disputed this with ******** and ********** and *** is reporting that the account is accurate and remains. This account is inaccurate and I doesn't belong to me. I have no knowledge of this account. Cashnet also states theyre unable to provide me any information about the account because they sold my information to a debt buyer.Business Response

I am writing to file a complaint regarding the validation of a debt on my consumer credit report. Despite multiple attempts to seek proof of validation, your company has failed to provide any evidence regarding a debt that does not belong to me. Furthermore, you have furnished this alleged debt on my consumer report and failed to validate the claim pursuant to Sec. 809(b) of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.As a consumer, I have a right to privacy and protection from inaccurate reporting on my credit report. Your company's actions have not only violated my right to privacy but also the permissible purpose of providing accurate information to consumer reporting agencies. According to 609(a)(1)(A), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report.I demand that this item be removed from my credit report immediately as it is furnishing inaccurate and incorrect information to the consumer reporting agencies. The reporting of such inaccurate information has caused severe damage to my character, my reputation, my general mode of living, and my ability to obtain credit for personal and house purposes. Your inaccurate reporting has also damaged my livelihood.According to 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 - Responsibilities of furnishers of information to consumer reporting agencies, furnishers have a duty to provide accurate information. A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.The *** clearly defines a charge off as Gross or Ordinary income, INCOME DOES NOT GET REPORTED ON THE CONSUMER REPORT which in fact makes your reporting of this account inaccurate! By definition, The *** Clearly says a Cancelled debt or Charge off is Income. The reporting of this account as a debt is inaccurate.Accnt No: *************Business Response
