Debt Validation Letter

Below is a sample debt validation letter. Use it as a guide and replace the sample information in the brackets with your own. Notice that the letter is short and to the point. You are not giving any information that they don't already have. It is best that you don't discuss any details of the account and it is best that you don't give a phone number. Also, keep in mind that the letter will be more effective if you send it by certified mail with return receipt.
