I sent a letter to Experian requesting validation of an inaccurate item on my credit file. The letter included the very pertinent information as they themselves use. If Experian is not able to identify me by the very information that they are allowing an alleged collector to use in order to make a claim, how could this be considered fair credit reporting practices? 

Instead of validating the item in dispute, Experian replied with a request for unreasonable and unnecessary personal information from my personal files, such as a copy of my drivers license, utility bill, bank statement, social security number, complete spelling of my name, and addresses for the past two years.
