CREDITWRENCH & dumb validation letters

REALLY DUMB VALIDATION LETTERS



Below is an example of a really dumb validation letter and the type of crap Uncle Normie, John Gliha, art of credit and their ilk would have you sending to your creditors and debt collectors.

One of the prime reasons it is so dumb to send off these kinds of letters is that FDCPA specifies exactly what a debt collector must do when he recieves a demand for validation and it includes very little of the garbage below. All that this kind of junk advice will get you is laughed at. It may or may not get you the validation you demand. All of this kind of folderol just proves that the sender is really stupid because it shows that he is trying to show the debt collector how smart he is but they are not interested in how smart the debtor is and what the debtor really wanted to know was how smart the debt collector is. Learn a lesson from CREDITWRENCH. Never try to teach the other fellow how smart you are but rather let him teach you how smart he is.

NOTICE OF DISPUTE;

DEMAND FOR VALIDATION AND PROOF OF CLAIM

Dear (Name of CEO here),

This letter is being sent to you in response to a letter received by Claimant from your offices dated July 19, 2004. Be advised that your claim is disputed and validation and proof of claim of the disputed debt is requested in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USCG 1692 et seq., and the Fair Credit Billing Act, 15 U.S.C. 1666.

This is NOT a request for “verification” or proof of Claimant mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM made pursuant to the above named Titles and Sections. I respectfully request that your offices provide Claimant with competent evidence as per the attached “Declaration and Proof of Claim” that I have any legal obligation to pay you the unsubstantiated alleged debt.

At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureaus, such as, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion prior to validation and proof of claim of the disputed debt, this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of Claimant 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

· Violation of United States Code TITLE 18 PART 1 CHAPTER 63 Sec. 1341

This debt is considered to be invalid until I receive proper validation and your offices provide Claimant with proof of claim of the disputed debt. Your offices have 30 days to produce the required documentation in accordance with FTC guidelines. During this validation period and proof of claim, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of Claimant credit reports, said action will be considered a “dishonor” and cause the self-executing contract portion of this notice to be implemented. 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 and proof of claim request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from Claimant credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to Claimant immediately.

Counter Claim with Self-executing Contract

If Respondent, such as by commission, omission, and otherwise:

(a) Fails to provide VALIDATION and PROOF OF CLAIM within thirty (30) days;

(b) Makes a false representation of the character of the hereinabove-referenced alleged debt;

(c) Makes a false representation of the legal status of the hereinabove-referenced alleged debt;

(d) Makes any threat of action that cannot legally be taken, in violation of any applicable law, such as, the law codified at the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act,

will be construed to be Respondent’s tacit acceptance of the terms and condition stated herein. In which case RESPONDENT

agrees to:

(e) Voluntarily report this account to all credit bureaus as “paid as agreed;” and,

(f) Voluntarily waive all claims against Claimant, their Agent or Heirs with prejudice; and,

(g) The matter regarding the alleged debt is finally and totally settled; and,

(h) Voluntarily admits the Claimant is the depositor for this account, that Respondent risked none of their assets at any time regarding this account and that they failed to disclose these material facts to Claimant; and,

(i) Voluntarily report the date of last activity on this account is the date of this notice.

Furthermore, RESPONDENT’S failure to “Cease and Desist” in accordance with the requirements of the FDCPA and other related law, and/or satisfy the above “terms and conditions,” constitutes RESPONDENT’S “Breach of Duty” and voluntary agreement to compensate Claimant, by certified mail, with a cashier’s check within thirty (30) days of the date of billing by Claimant, their Agent or Heirs, in the following amounts:

I) One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) for each communication made to Claimant or their Agent or Heirs, whether telephonically or in writing, which is not in affidavit form, by a person who has first hand knowledge, regarding Respondent’s unsubstantiated claim; and,

II) Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) for each transaction initiated by Claimant where Claimant’s commercial ability is impeded due to you, your agents’ or assigns adverse credit reporting; and,

III) Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) for each court appearance Claimant, their Agent or Heirs makes in response to Respondent’s unsubstantiated claims; and,

IV) RESPONDENT owes Claimant the balance equal to the purported credit limit on this account, plus interest and fees, for money lent; and,

V) Three times the alleged claim amount of $(Amount of Claim) which equals $(3x Amount of Claim); and,

VI) Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) per occurrence, for listing or reporting any information to a credit reporting repository which could be considered detrimental to Claimant’s credit history; and,

VII) Punitive damages in the amount of ($272,000.00); and

VIII)Debt Collector tacitly agrees that Debt Collector will compensate Respondent for all costs; fees and expenses incurred in defending against this and any and all continued collection attempts (by anyone) re the above-referenced alleged account

RESPONDENT also agrees to:

1. Voluntarily authorize Claimant to record a UCC-1 on RESPONDENT as debtor to secure the debt owed Claimant; and,

2. Voluntarily prove their claim as a RESPONDENT in possession of Claimant property in a involuntary bankruptcy proceeding process; and,

3. Voluntarily compensate Claimant for ALL costs and attorneys fees; and,

4. Resolve ALL claims by Claimant, against Respondent, et al, exclusively and finally through binding arbitration, if necessary, to enforce the above terms, conditions, fees, penalties and damages. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court except to confirm an arbitration award. The arbitration organization that is selected will apply its code or procedure in effect at the time the arbitration is filed, subject to this agreement. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitrator’s authority is limited solely to the Claims between Claimant and Respondent alone. The arbitration will not be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding. If Claimant prevails in the arbitration of any Claim against Respondent, Respondent will reimburse Claimant for any fees Claimant paid to the arbitration organization in connection with the arbitration. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on the parties, and judgment may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration provision applies to all Claims now in existence or that may arise in the future. The arbitration provision shall survive any voluntary payment of Claimant’s claim against Respondent, in full, or any bankruptcy by Respondent.

This is a private communication and is intended to affect an out-of-court settlement of this matter. Conduct yourself accordingly. Should any provision on this agreement be found to not be enforceable by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall not adversely affect any other provision of this agreement and reasonable opportunity and effort shall be taken to modify it to become enforceable.
