To Whom It May Concern:

This letter is being sent to you in response to a notice sent to me on (Date) or in response
to a listing on my credit report (Choose Which Sentence Best Represents Your Situation).
Be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt
Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 ( that your claim is disputed and
validation is requested.

This is NOT a request for �verification� or proof of my mailing address, but a request
for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section. I respectfully
request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal
obligation to pay you.

At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated
information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureau�s (Equifax, Experian or TransUnion)
this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if
any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company
that you represent I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you and your client
for the following:

� Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act

� Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act

� Defamation of Character

If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following
Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during
such time all collection activity must cease and desist. Also during this validation period,
if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I
will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing any information to a
credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated. If your offices fail to
respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all
references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file
and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.

(OPTIONAL CEASE & DESIST) I would also like to request, in writing, that no further
telephone contact be made by your offices to my home or to my place of employment. If
your offices continue to attempt telephone communication with me it will be considered
harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me
MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter.

It would be advisable that you and your client assure that your records are in order
before I am forced to take legal action..
Best Regards
