to engage in unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. For example, in this case, they should not identify themselves as different companies, when they are actually the same. Please investigate this matter. I do n't even know who these companies were until this account was turned over for collection. Could it be credit theft? I 'm not paying until I see an accurate billing statement. FUTHERMORE, The FTC CLEARY points out, Every collector must send CONSUMERS a written 'validation notice ' telling you how much money you owe within - days after they first contact you. This notice also must include the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money, and how to proceed if you do n't think you owe the money. '' I never received any notice. Subsequently, The FCRA also protects consumers from the misreporting of information on your credit report. If a debt collector or credit bureau reports incorrect or inaccurate account information, it is violating the FCRA. Examples of violations include failing to report that a debt was discharged in bankruptcy and reaging old debt to extend the statute of limitations. In this case, it is definitely apparent that a collection agency or Credit bureaus can most definitely mix up similar credit files and misreport information. Therefore a consumer, should have the right to dispute any information he/she may feel is not possibly reported accurately.
