Subject: Georgia Sample Letter to Debt Collector Re: Fair Debt Collection and Practices Act — Important Notice Dear [Debt Collector's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you in regard to a debt that was allegedly assigned to your collection agency. Before we proceed any further, it is important to establish that I am aware of my rights as a consumer under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FD CPA) and the laws specific to the state of Georgia. The purpose of this letter is to kindly request that you provide me with the necessary documentation and information pertaining to the debt you claim I owe. As an informed consumer, I understand that it is my right to obtain these details under Section 809 of the FD CPA. Moreover, the Georgia Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (GDP) also mandates that collectors must provide accurate, verified, and detailed information regarding the alleged debt. To ensure compliance with both the federal and state laws, I kindly request the following information in writing: 1. Verification of Debt: Please provide me with a written verification detailing the precise amount of the alleged debt, the original creditor's name, and the nature of the debt. This verification can be in the form of copies of statements, contracts, or any other relevant documents. 2. Validation of Debt: I request that you provide validation of the debt, including proof that the amount claimed is accurate and legally owed. This should include any evidence of a written agreement or contract, as required by the FD CPA and GDP. 3. Cease and Desist Communications: In accordance with my rights under the FD CPA, I hereby request that all collection communication regarding this alleged debt be immediately ceased until the requested information has been provided. This includes contact via phone calls, emails, or any other means of communication. Please note that any failure to provide adequate documentation or continue collection efforts without verifying the debt could be deemed a violation of both federal and state laws. In such instances, I will not hesitate to take appropriate legal action to protect my rights. This letter is not an admission of liability, nor is it intended to dispute the validity of the debt at this stage. I simply seek to exercise my rights as a consumer and ensure fair and legal debt collection practices are followed. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Please provide all requested documents and communicate exclusively in writing to the address listed on this letter. Failure to comply with my request may result in further legal action.
