Narrative evidence

What happened

13213928205 Deposited a new message: "from CVC, a recent investigation uncovered credit card companies and major banks have violated consumer protection laws such as the Fair Credit Billing Act and Fair Credit Reporting Act. Because of this, these businesses are not allowed to collect on their accounts, meaning you are no longer legally required to pay back certain debt. And those balances will also be removed from your credit report. To hear which banks and credit card companies were found guilty and what will be removed from your credit, call 888-356-1808. Again, that's 888-356-1808." Click here: 14699825000 to listen to full voice message.
