The Section 609

Credit Repair Letter


INTRODUCTION:
Cleaning your bad credit is not difficult. In fact, cleaning your credit is rela
tively
easy provided you have the right information.
The attached Section 609 Attorney Credit Repair Letter is the correct information.
Don t let the simplicity of this letter fool you. It works. Although results do va
ry
and it may take you a few rounds of sending the letter, eventually this method of
cleaning your credit will work to completely clean your credit file of everythin
g that
you want removed.
Here is WHY it works:
There are three main Credit Reporting Agencies (CRAs) or bureaus. They are
Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. When you engage in a credit transaction with a
bank or other creditor normally this information will be reported to the CRAs an
d
placed into your credit file which is indexed under your social security number.
It is important to understand that this method of reporting is completely electr
onic.
There is no verification or review of any signed contract or documents. Each mon
th
your bank or creditor sends an electronic file with the details of your account to
the CRAs and they simply place the information into your credit file with NO
VERIFICATION as to whether the account is valid, the information is correct or
whether the creditor even has the right to report it!

Basically the three main credit bureaus give the creditor the benefit of the dou
bt
that they are reporting accurate information. The problem with this method of
reporting is that ANY CREDITOR can essentially report whatever they want about
you whether it is correct or not. The Federal Government saw a big problem with
this method of reporting so they passed the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) whi
ch
governs all Credit Reporting Agencies and how they report information about you.
Under Federal law, all Credit Reporting Agencies MUST VERIFY ALL
INFORMATION received from creditors BEFORE this information is added to your
credit file. Proper verification rightly involves actual review the original sig
ned
creditor contract document that you signed when you opened a credit account in
order to verify that the account is valid and correct. But since reviewing milli
ons and
millions of paper documents in this fashion would be extremely difficult and cos
t a
fortune in man power the Credit Reporting Agencies simply DO NOT verify
accounts in this manner. No verification of original signed contract documents e
ver
takes place between the creditor and the Credit Reporting Agency. The CRA just
reports the information provided by your creditor and falsely assumes that it is
valid and correct simply because it is being reported. And when asked to VERIFY
the information the CRA will simply send an electronic communication to the
creditor asking is this information correct and the creditor will usually respond
es
this information is correct . The MADNESS is NO ONE EVER ACTUALLY VERIFIES
THE ACTUAL SIGNED CONTRACT ACCOUNT DOCUMENTATION.

Most consumers HAVE NO IDEA that this is taking place. The Credit Reporting
Agencies are in violation of Federal Law and they know it. But since most
consumers do not know their rights - they don t do anything about it.
Until now.
Although well over 70% of credit reports have errors on them, the vast majority
of
negative items on a typical credit report are in fact VALID. Therefore, if you s
imply
dispute all the negatives on your report using a traditional disputing process,
those
that are valid will most likely be verified by the credit reporting agencies and
remain. Nothing will change. For this reason, many people falsely believe there
is
NO HOPE in removing valid derogatory information from their credit report and
essentially give up. But nothing could be further from the truth.
With the Section 609 Attorney Credit Repair Letter, it doesn t matter whether the
negative account is valid or not. This letter works because it disputes the CRED
IT
REPORTING AGENCIES RIGHT TO REPORT THE NEGATIVE and NOT
whether the account is valid or not.
The Section 609 &redit Repair Letter simply requests under Federal Law
that the Credit Reporting Agency (Experian, Equifax or TransUnion) provide you a
COPY of the original creditor contract which they ( SHOULD HAVE ) USED to verify
the account as being valid and correct. The CRAs are required under federal law
to
keep this information on file. But since the CRAs DO NOT verify the account
information
they DO NOT have this information on file and as a result they
CANNOT provide it to you.
Under the FCRA, Credit Reporting Agencies must provide a copy of the verifiable
original creditor documentation if it is requested by you the consumer. Since th
ey
cannot provide verification to you in the form of a physical contract document p
er
your written request to do so
the account is classified as UNVERIFIED and under
the FCRA all UNVERIFIED accounts MUST BE DELETED. Whether the account is
correct or not
makes no difference. If the CRA cannot provide you physical
verification of the account
it is an UNVERIFIED account and MUST BE DELETED.
This is WHY and HOW the Section 609 Credit Repair Letter works.
Keep in mind results will vary. You may send a letter and get virtually all of y
our
derogatory information removed. Or you may send a letter and only get a few
accounts removed. It is important to be diligent and persistent. If after the fi
rst
round of letters derogatory information remains then simply send the letter
Page 4 of ?
again emphasizing that this is your 2
nd
Written Request to receive verifiable proof
of the account or have it deleted. Eventually, you will find that your derogator
y
accounts will begin to disappear. For some people it happens quickly and is quit
e
easy and for others it can be a fight. So be prepared to go a few rounds of lett
ers if
required.
What to Expect:
When you send in your certified letter to the CRAs
many times they will attempt
to
disregard your request and send you bogus reply communications. Expect to

receive any number of responses that may try to intimidate you from pursuing the
issue further.
Experian, Equifax or TransUnion may send you a communication saying something
like this:
We received a suspicious request regarding your personal credit information that
we have determined was not sent by you. We have not taken any action on this
request and any future requests made in this manner will not be processed and wi
ll
not receive a response.
Oh really? Exactly HOW did they determine it was not sent by you . The letter
was notarized and included a copy of your SSN & ID Card.
To further scare you into submission, they may also include something like this:
Suspicious requests are taken seriously and reviewed by security personnel who wi
ll
report deceptive activity, including copies of letters deemed as suspicious, to
law
enforcement officials and to state or federal regulatory agencies.
DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THIS!!!
These are nothing but scare tactics to intimidate you into giving up.

Step 2: Review Each Report & Identify NEGATIVE Items to Remove
8VH?the Section 609 Credit Repair Letter for Experian, Equifax or TransUnion and s
imply copy the
negative inf
ormation from your corresponding credit report into the letter to send to the Cr
edit Reporting
Agency. Note: Only dispute a maximum of 22 accounts at one time. Attempting to d
ispute more than 22
accounts at one time could cause the CRAs to classify the dispute as frivolous.
Example: You review your Equifax report and determine you have (3) negative acco
unts to remove. Simply
open the Equifax Section 609 Attorney Credit Repair Letter and type in the details
from the negative
accounts you want removed. That is it!
Step 3: Notarize Letter & Include Copy of Social Security & ID Card
Once you complete each letter, simply have your signature notarized, include a p
hotocopy of your Social
Security and ID Card (Driver s License or Passport) as proof of identity and mail
the letter CERTIFIED MAIL.
(This will enable you to track delivery of your letter and provide proof that it
was received by the CRA)
The next step is to watch the mail closely for responses from the CRAs. If you r
eceive a
response and some negative items were not removed AND the CRA DID NOT provide yo
u
written verifiable proof per your written request
then send the letter again. RI
NSE &
REPEAT as they say.
It is recommended that you open (3) file folders one for Equifax, Experian and
TransUnion and keep very detailed records of your communications with each Credi
t
Reporting Agency. It is important that you establish a paper trail history of yo
ur efforts to
enforce your consumer rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. DOCUMENT
EVERYTHING IN WRITING. Keep copies of letters, certified mail receipts, response
letters,
notes etc.
Over time, you will build a very strong case against the CRA and this evidence w

ill be
invaluable should you ever have to go to the unusual extreme of filing a lawsuit
to seek
damages.
