DV question on duplicate accounts

I have a CA that has duplicated an account on my CR when I dipsuted them.  Should I DV both accounts. 
 
They are so sneaky... they added verizon to the beginning of the account number for the duplicate account.  The account # is exactly the same well they put XXX for the last digits.
 
THANKS!

Yes, I would DV both. Then, I would send an ITS letter, as they have just violated the FCRA. Keep track of all of the violations at $1,000 per.

Edit: BTW Glam, I had a CA do that to me. As soon as I DV'd them, viola, the account went away, but not before costing me 21 points. I only recovered 8 of them when the account went away.
