Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

To whom it may concern, I am writing to file an urgent complaint regarding multiple fraudulent accounts, inquiries, and reporting discrepancies on my XXXX credit report. These discrepancies stem from identity theft and include substantial inaccuracies in account balances, open dates, payment statuses, and account types. Despite previous attempts to resolve these issues, including filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), XXXX has both removed and reinserted these accounts, compounding the violation of my rights. This is my third attempt to resolve these issues, and I have allowed more than the required 30 days for corrective action. I have received no validation or resolution from XXXX. 

These actions constitute violations of several provisions under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and related federal laws. Specifically : 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) ( FCRA ) Maximum Possible Accuracy The failure of XXXX to ensure accurate and complete reporting of information violates this provision, which mandates that consumer reports be as accurate as possible. Discrepancies in account open dates across bureaus for the same accounts ( listed below ) are clear violations.

5 U.S.C. 1692g ( FDCPA ) Validation of Debts Creditors and collectors have failed to validate these debts within the required timeframe. This provision requires that, upon request, debt collectors must provide the consumer with validation of the debt, which I have not received.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( FCRA ) Duty of Furnishers of Information Under this section, furnishers of information ( such as creditors ) are required to investigate disputed information and correct inaccuracies. However, despite my disputes, XXXX has continued reporting unverifiable and disputed information, including re-reporting already removed accounts. 

15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ( FCRA ) Blocking Fraudulent Information This provision entitles consumers to have fraudulent accounts blocked within four days of submitting appropriate identity theft documentation. Despite providing the required proof of identity theft, fraudulent accounts have not been permanently blocked, in violation of this law.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( FCRA ) Reinvestigations of Disputes In addition, XXXX has not conducted timely or accurate reinvestigations of the disputes I have filed, which is required under this section of the FCRA. Continued failure to remove disputed accounts further violates my rights. 

15 U.S.C. 1681c-1 ( FCRA ) Time Limits for Reporting Negative Information Inaccurately reported charge-offs and accounts that should have been removed or blocked after identity theft have remained in my credit file beyond the allowed time frame for reporting, which also violates this section of the FCRA.

Additional Violations Across XXXX : Failure to Notify ( 15 U.S.C. 1692g ) : Creditors must provide written notification of debts within five days, as required under 15 U.S.C. 1692g. This was not provided, making these accounts illegitimate.

Failure to Ensure Accuracy ( FCRA 607 ( b ) ) : XXXX must ensure maximum accuracy in its reporting. Discrepancies in balances, high credit limits, open dates, and payment histories across XXXX records indicate noncompliance. 

Failure to Investigate ( FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ) : XXXX must investigate disputes within 30 days. My disputes remain unresolved despite exceeding the legally mandated timeline. 

Failure to Reinvestigate ( FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) ) : FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 6 ) requires XXXX to reinvestigate if a consumer disputes the resolution of a claim. My disputes were not adequately addressed. 

Failure to Protect Personal Information ( Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act 15 U.S.C. 6801-6809 ) : The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act requires financial institutions and credit bureaus to safeguard consumer data. This appears to have been compromised by the fraudulent accounts. 

Identity Theft Protections Ignored ( Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act 18 U.S.C. 1028 ) : The Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act criminalizes identity theft. These fraudulent accounts violate federal protections against identity theft. 
Failure to Provide Resources for Identity Theft Victims ( FTC Guidelines 15 U.S.C. 1681g ( e ) ) : XXXX must provide victims of identity theft with resources and support, including fraud alerts. These steps were not implemented.
