CC: John Doe
Dear John,
The first time I have received any written notice on this matter is the
letter dated March 17, 2014 letter from you, or Jefferson Collections on
this matter, which I actually received on April 3, 2014. I have never
received any written correspondence from you dated February 1, 2014
which you have alluded to in your letters dated March 1 and March 17.
I have also notified you that I am disputing the debt with the creditor
in our phone conversation on March 7, 2014.
Validating Debts:
(b) If the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the
thirty-day period described in subsection (a) that the debt, or any
portion thereof, is disputed, or that the consumer requests the
name and address of the original creditor, the debt collector shall
cease collection of the debt, or any disputed portion thereof, until the
debt collector obtains verification of the debt or any copy of a
judgment, or the name and address of the original creditor, and a
copy of such verification or judgment, or name and address of the
original creditor, is mailed to the consumer by the debt collector.
Explain the nature of the alleged debt - that is, what the money I
allegedly owe is for;
* you cannot add interest or fees except those allowed by the original
contract or state law.
* you do not have to respond to this dispute but if you do, any attempt
to collect this debt without validating it, violates the FDCPA.

Finally, if you do not own this debt, I demand that you immediately
send a copy of this dispute letter to the original creditor so they are
also aware of my dispute with this debt. Please communicate with me
on this matter only in writing from this point on. FDCPA 805 (15
U.S.C. 1692c) requires you to respect this request.
