Credit card Taking/threatening an illegal action Threatened to sue on too old debt New York

I - - make a claim with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) that the following attached attempt to collect a debt is highly fraudulent. My personal information is being floated in what is known in the debt collection business as a " debt Pool '', whereas collection information is outdated and not even enforceable. The attached collection from - -, - does not state that the debt is no longer enforceable, a stipulation by the Federal Trade Commission. The method of an illegal posting of a collection on my personal credit report, or an illegal collection against my rights of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act can not be tolerated. In Federal Trade Commission v. - - -, - ( 2009 ) the federal district court decided in favor of the Federal Trade Commission that a collection agency must operate within strict guidelines in the collection of a debt. The criteria are as follows : 1 ) The debt must still be enforceable within the state of procurement or where the original obligator resides, or a combination of both.


3 ) The validation of debt ownership must be proved, without exception. There is no statement on the attached collection that the debt is no longer enforceable. The collection agency stipulates that Bank of America obtained a judgment against me. By legal mandate, the docket number of the judgment must be listed as well as what county clerk 's office the judgment is filed with. In this case, there is no judgment. The statement saying " This judgment may be forwarded to an attorney for execution '' is a complete falsehood. There can not be a lawsuit as the legal time limit to enforce a summary judgment action has passed. Even though the collection letter states that illegal, abusive, deceptive and unfair debt collections are illegal, this collection in its entirety is just that, a deceptive illegal attempt to collect a debt that is no longer enforceable. I demand that all my information be purged immediately by - -, - and Bank of America, and that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) take the necessary steps to sanction both companies for using such abusive collection tactics.
