RE: Sprint Account XXXXXXXXXXXX1251
Subject: Disputed Bogus Sprint Debt/Illegal Debt Collection Practices
Dear John Donnell:
Be advised that this Sprint debt was settled with another collection company 2 years ago so you need to contact Sprint.
Sprint (and you) will need to produce itemized detail of this debt including all charges on a line by line basis if they still contend this debt is valid because I am disputing it's validity as you require within 30 days. If I have to produce proof of this debt settlement showing you are clearly in error, I will charge your firm a $500 fee so be advised.
Your letter states I have 30 days to dispute the validity of this debt you state in the last paragraph, As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record has been submitting to a credit reporting agency because you have failed to meet your credit obligations.
This is patently illegal and against debt collection law therefore I will have my attorney file the appropriate legal recourse against you and your firm should any negative credit references come from your firm regarding this bogus debt. You cannot report so called debts you purchase on a wholesale basis without contacting consumers first so they can respond and then you must prove the validity of such a so called debt.
As stated on the following NY State Attorney General Consumer Tips Web Page at http://www.oag. State. Ny.Us/consumer/tips/debt_collectors.html
False or Misleading Representations: Debt collection agencies may not deceive you with:
-threats to communicate false credit information with any other person;
You need to include your fax number so people do not have to rely on slow snail mail and send things certified at their own expense so you do not claim non-receipt.! I have sent a copy of this letter to New York Attorney General Elliot Spitzer and filed formal complaints with various government agencies for your reprehensible actions.
Regards,
Irate Consumer
