It is a duplicate, sometimes an error on your report, you can dispute that on-line reviewing your credit report, but you will have to check if all (3) bureaus have it on as well. Go to www.annualcreditreport.com and check and see, duplicates are the most common reported.
Duplicates mostly will be dropped within a couple of weeks from you credit report, if it is reported legitimately.

It is not legal. You can dispute the item with the credit agency who reported it twice and to the bureaus and have it removed. It is also illegal to re-age a debt and make it seem newer than it is.

it is the infringement of creditors rights. Can also be challenged by creditor through legal process.
