Re: Account Number

Dear Sir/Madam:

This is to notify you that in accordance with my rights under the federal debt collection laws, I am requesting you to cease and desist all further communication with me, as well as my family, friends, and employers in regard to this and all other alleged debts you claim I owe.

You are hereby notified that failure to comply with this request will result in a complaint being filed with the Federal Trade Commission and the Attorney General’s office of my state. If you place any negative mark on my credit report as a result of this letter, then I will pursue civil and criminal claims against you.

I have no intentions to deal with you. I will contact the original creditor to resolve this matter, if necessary.

Sincerely,
Your Name
