I recently ran a credit report and found a debt of $130 to Synovus Bank that I don't believe is mine. I want to get this debt off of my credit report and I don't feel that I should owe the money. I know that the first step is to contact the collection agency that currently has the account and demand that they provide proof of the debt, but what to do after that?
I remember seeing a site sometime back that gave a list of steps you can take with collections agencies, and if they fail to meet any of the requirements laid out in these steps they are legally required to remove the debt from your credit report.

Edit: I should add that I have NOT had any contact with the collection agency. I have moved since this ordeal originally happened so they may not even have my new address.
