According to XXXX XXXX XXXX Definitions Identity theft means a fraud committed or attempted using the identifying information of another person without authority.

This clearly states that once I have notified the consumer reporting agencies which are XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX that this account is Identity Theft that the account MUST be removed from my consumer report within 4 DAYS of the receipt of this notice. 

Earlier in this notice I stated that XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting derogatory remarks on my Consumer report such as late payments which TRANSUNION and XXXX is allowing them to do. XXXX XXXX XXXX is NOT alllowed according to the FCRA to report this type of information to my consumer report. The FCRA backs up my claims. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - Definitions ; rules of construction The term consumer reporting agency means any person which, for monetary fees, dues, or on a cooperative nonprofit basis, regularly engages in whole or in part in the practice of assembling or evaluating consumer credit information or other information on consumers for the purpose of furnishing consumer reports to third parties, and which uses any means or facility of interstate commerce for the purpose of preparing or furnishing consumer reports. The term consumer means an individual.

XXXX XXXX XXXX is reporting late payment history on this account for a debt. A debt that I do not owe at that. Payments between a consumer and the person making the report is a transaction as well as apart of the experience between the consumer and the person making the report. Which is not allowed to be reported to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX report. This is a violation reporting transaction history is illegal according to the FCRA. 

Earlier in this notice I stated that TRANSUNION and XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX were civilly liable due to the fact they are both aware that this account is fraudulent because I have already notified them. The FCRA backs up my claims. By violating section XXXX for permissible purpose and XXXX for information contained in consumer reports they are also violating compliance procedures under this title. XXXX XXXX Code XXXX - Civil liability for willful noncompliance ( a ) In general Any person ( a person could be a company/corporation according to the FCRA, and TRANSUNION and XXXX are XXXX ) who willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer ( example of a consumer would be XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( A ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00} ; or ( B ) in the case of liability of a natural person for obtaining a consumer report under false pretenses or knowingly without a permissible purpose, actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or {$1000.00}, whichever is greater ; If I can prove they wilfully violated the act I am entitled to at least XXXX $ per violation plus any other damages I have sustained as a result of their failure to follow the law. I stated earlier in this notice that I was denied approval to auto loans which damages my ability to travel as well as being denied approval on rent and home loans which resulted in me and my family becoming homeless and having to live in a homeless shelter. I have attached proof of residence at this homeless shelter along with this dispute. If I have to file more than XXXX complaint, wilful noncompliance can easily be proven as they had a full understanding of the violations after I complained the XXXX time. Which I complained about this account more than 3 times now. Every company in their agreements with consumers said they would follow the law and agreed to do so.They are aware that they are breaking the law. If for any reason TRANSUNION and XXXX were not aware both parties would still be liable for any and all damages that happened to me XXXX result of their negligence according to the FCRA. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX liability for negligent noncompliance In general Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( XXXX ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure Negligent noncompliance means the law was violated not on purpose but just due to a lack of knowledge on the required reporting procedures. 

TRANSUNION and XXXX has violated even more violations by failing to comply after my first initial CfPB complaint. According to the FCRA TRANSUNION and XXXX is required by federal law to maintain reasonable procedures. The FCRA backs up my claims. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX findings and statement a ) Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting The XXXX makes the following findings : ( XXXX ) There is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. 
It is a fact that TRANSUNION and XXXX are credit reporting agencies.

I am expressing this particular section of the FCRA because it is relevant to this matter. Due to the inaccuracies on my consumer report that stem from the fraudulent account in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX it is costing XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to have a lower XXXX XXXX. By XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX having a lower XXXX XXXX its costing me money due to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX having to pay high XXXX and higher insurance rates. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is losing money due to the fraudulent of the account in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX. This account is not equitable for the consumer XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and damaging XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ability to operate in commerce, and XXXX XXXX Code XXXX just stated that consumer reporting agencies which are XXXX, TRANSUNION, and XXXX are required by federal law to meet the needs of commerce for consumer credit in a way that is fair and equitable to the consumer which TRANSUNION and XXXX is NOT doing. TRANSUNION and XXXX after my first complaint is still reporting this fraudulent inaccurate account which means TRANSUNION and XXXX is NOT maintaining reasonable procedures. This is a direct violation of XXXX XXXX. XXXX. The account in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX that is being reported to my consumer report is INACCURATE and FRAUDULENT. The account in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX is NOT MINES.

I am demanding that this account be removed from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX report and that I am heavily compensated for any all damages that occurred to me as a result of this fraudulent account being reported on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX report the last 2 years. As well as being compensated for any inconveniences that I have experienced as a result of TRANSUNION, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX negligence. Furthermore I see that XXXX XXXX XXXX claims this account is charged off. If that is the case XXXX offs are income according to the IRS XXXX and charge offs are taxable. Meaning it must be reported on taxes. I have attached a photo from IRS official website to confirm this fact to you. Charge offs are considered income per the irs canceled debt is taxable. 

If charge offs are income that would mean somebody is getting paid however I did not receive any income from this charge off so if I didnt get paid then who did? I also never received a XXXX or any correspondence from XXXX XXXX XXXX that the debt was XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX was suppose to receive a XXXX once the debt was charged off so that I could properly and correctly report the income to the IRS on taxes. 

Furthermore XXXX can not be reported to the consumer report a charge off is also considered a certificate of indebtedness which a certificate of indebtedness is considered income. Income being reported to the consumer report is a direct violation of the privacy act of 1974. This act applies to TRANSUNION, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is yet another violation of the law by TRANSUNION, XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX. I demand this fraudulent and inaccurate account in regards to XXXX XXXX XXXX be deleted immediately and that I am compensated for my pain and suffering as well as for every violation of the FCRA and privacy act of 1974.
