Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

To Whom It May Concern, I hope this complaint finds you well, because I am not doing well. I am stressed out and extremely frustrated. I am writing to verify that the negative accounts on my credit report are not mine. I dont know where they came from, and there is no need to ask for validation. 
Complaint Details : I have no legally enforceable contracts or affiliations with these accounts or companies. I did not authorize these inquiries, accounts, or the posting of fraudulent personal information on my credit report. Including multiple violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and consumer law processes designed to protect me from illegal and unethical reporting. I expect that you thoroughly investigate that EVERY NECESSARY STEP AND PROCEDURE WAS COMPLETED BEFORE RESPONDING TO ME. IF NOT, YOU ARE OBLIGATED TO REMOVE EVERY ACCOUNT LISTED IMMEDIATELY. Consider the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b, 1681c-2, and 18 U.S.C. 1028A ), which requires you to remove all of these inaccurate items from my credit report for legitimate purposes and aggravated identity theft. TAKE NOTE THAT I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THESE ACTIVITIES, AND LEGALLY REQUIRED REGULATION STEPS WERE NOT FOLLOWED. I will fight to have these violations corrected.
