Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports

I have identified multiple issues with my credit report that indicate fraudulent activity, mishandling of my personal information, and improper practices by credit reporting agencies. Below are the specific problems : Incorrect Information on My Report : My credit report contains accounts and inquiries that are not mine.
