Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: Account Number

I am requesting that you cease and desist with your efforts to collect on the debt referenced above. I wish to deal with the original creditor and not a collection agency.


Therefore, I request that you cease collection efforts immediately or face legal action under State and Federal consumer protection laws. I hope you would consider giving this letter the attention it deserves.


Sincerely,
Your Signature

  • I have been getting calls from several collection companies looking for a person with my last name. I have told all of them that I am not the person they are looking for nor do I know the person. These calls persist and after my repeated attempts to stop the call they keep calling. What do I do? by Anonymous on 07 Apr, 2011
