Validation of a debt simply means confirmation or verification of the debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The FDCPA provides specific legal rights to a consumer who requests a validation notice to verify the debt. That law requires that the debt collector must generally provide you a written notice within five days after they first communicate with you.
