Please do not assume this is a duplicate because it contains a different dispute and problem that I 'm having with Portfolio Recovery Associates. This company has been sued for their illegal actions FDCPA more times than one can count. They are on my credit reports for a debt that I do not owe. They lied about sending me any notice of the debt and continue to report unverified information on my credit report. I 've already taken action against them for calling my job several times after beining notified not to. They claim to have sent a notice to me concerning this, but will not answer a simple question as to where they sent the notice to. I 'm not asking them to verify that they know my name and social security number, especially given the incidents of identity theft in which crooks steal basic identifying information and open credit. This accounts does not belong to me. In order to open an account an application for credit would have been completed, drivers licence also. I 'm asking for any of that. Neither company can provide that because I have never applied for this credit.
