Pressler and Pressler , LLP sent me a letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating 1 ) they had been retained by XXXX XXXX, 2 ) notice of opportunity to contact within 30 days to dispute the debt, and 3 ) a statement they are a debt collector. The letter was delivered uncertified. 

II. I responded on XX/XX/XXXX. In that letter, I asked Pressler and Pressler , LLP to validate the date. The letter stated to respond to a specific Notary Public ( who would verify and validate receipt of said validation ) within 30 days. The letter was sent by certified mail and received by Pressler and Pressler , LLP approximately one week later. 

XXXX. I also pulled down my credit report and saw that this debt had been charged off. 

XXXX. I was served with a lawsuit on XX/XX/XXXX by Pressler and Pressler , LLP regarding this matter. 

ISSUE : This firm stated they were retained by XXXX XXXX. That claim is patently false, since the debt was charged off. If XXXX XXXX was still pursuing this debt, it would not be at that status, so this firm has made a false statement regarding its disposition on this matter. Further, this firm has stated they are a debt collector further down in the letter. This indicates that they obtained this debt as third party debt collector. 

The statements made by Pressler and Pressler , LLP in the letter are fraudulent and misleading, and intended to intimidate. Further, Pressler and Pressler , LLP has extended this fraud into court.
