Complaint:
I have on many occasions disputed a debt listed in my Credit Reporting file, the debt listed is XXXX and is for a debt they supposedly purchased from a company called XXXX XXXX. In response to each dispute, I have received a message stating the debt is verified as mine. 

I have not done business with XXXX XXXX and have requested multiple times a document signed by myself be produced for my review reflecting my authorization of the original account being opened, neither XXXX or XXXX have produced a document of any type and I only get a notice that the debt has been verified. 

I am again disputing this debt as not mine and it still remains listed as a verified debt on my Credit Reporting file.

Is it now allowed in the United States in conflict with Federal Law to just pick random people as a business and claim that they owe you money without ever having to produce any form of legal documentation to verify a debt? I have disputed this so many times and I have never had one piece of legal documentation provided to me with my signature, yet I constantly receive notices the debt was verified. 

I have requested many times a copy of whatever process was used to verify the debt along with any documentation that has been provided by XXXX to XXXX as verification that the debt is mine, XXXX has failed each time to produce any documentation of the verification process they supposedly used to verify the debt. It should be my legal right to request documentation with a signature reflecting my authorization of the original account, as a matter of preventing identity theft. 

If there is never legal documentation provided as verification, what do we have to prevent identity theft by unknown individuals or false claims of a debt by unscrupulous businesses within the United States. 

If a business only needs to make the claim that a debt is owed then never has to produce signed documentation to verify the debt was authorized, it opens the door ( all United States Citizens ) to the potential of Identity Theft by unknown individuals or businesses not operating within the guidelines of Federal and State laws to unfair debt collection and Credit Reporting, it will force individuals into paying debts they never owed in order to attempt correcting the issue and getting a valuable credit score back. 

I am not only filing this complaint with the CFPB, I am also filing a complaint with the Nebraska Attorney General and filing a complaint with the United States Attorney. I am also forwarding all responses from day one involving all complaints files, disputes files, etc. to our Senator and Congressman to bring attention to this matter and possibly start a change in the laws.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I understand the process of the investigation is to reach every individual company to verify the accuracy in the information. In accordance to FCRA, Section 611 A through D, you are supposed to let me know who you verified with. In my original investigation request sent back in XXXX and XXXX, I asked the following creditors to delete anything that is not 100 percent accurate. 
This is not the time to update since you had time to update after the first letter. Now that I have pointed out the mistakes, by updating the terms is an admission of guilt and a direct violation of my rights of a fair investigation. You stated it was verified. How is it possible that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX  all verified the accounts above as accurate, but they all have inconsistencies in the reporting? In fact, there is no possible way a full investigation could have been done in accordance to Section 611 due to the inconsistencies coming after my original request of investigation. XXXX  failed to send me any correspondence at all after numerous requests. 
At this point, I demand you delete these accounts immediately, or I have no choice but to seek counsel to point out the rights that have been violated under the FCRA. As you may be aware, " Estoppel by Silence '' legally means that the credit bureaus and the listed creditors had a duty to speak but failed to do so therefore, that must mean you agree with me that this debt is false. I will use the Estoppel in my defense since I have a track record of you not sending documents back to me. Please forward me an updated credit report after you have completed your deletions and corrections of the following accounts from Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. 

XXXX XXXX  - XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXXXXXX XXXX   XXXX XXXX  - XXXXXXXX XXXX

Issue: Problem caused by your funds being low
Sub-issue: Overdrafts and overdraft fees

Complaint:
[ Link : https : XXXX ] I've come across this report which lists AFCU as number XXXX in terms of assets and indicates that they don't charge NSF fees XXXX 

However, according to point # XXXX at the bottom of the page, the total revenue from Overdraft/NSF fees XXXX XXXX XXXX. If Overdraft and NSF Fees are synonymous, then the claim that AFCU doesn't charge these fees seems contradictory. To add to this, my account was charged with insufficient fund fees twice just in the past month. While we do have an overdraft protection account, fees still get assessed if we lack adequate credit in that account. 

Could someone please provide clarification on this matter? 

Thank you, A long-time AFCU customer.

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement
Sub-issue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Complaint:
XXXX account hacked, stolen tracking numbers, headache. 

Someone hacked my XXXX account on XX/XX/2022 and made three large fraudulent " spoof '' purchases ; {$880.00}, {$880.00}, and {$990.00}. The seller account which has since been ghosted is XXXX. What I mean by spoof is that the items were never shipped, but show as delivered because the seller/hacker provided stolen/duplicated tracking numbers that correlate to XXXX purchases that were delivered to my city. When I reach out to XXXX, they say they can't help me because I have filed a dispute with my card, which I have. I went to XXXX claims and was able to get detailed tracking info for one of the tracking numbers showing XXXX as the shipper, and someone else as the recipient. XXXX cancelled my claims on the other two tracking numbers, and when I called I was told that because XXXX was the shipper, I needed to reach out to XXXX for more information. I tried to chat with a rep for XXXX, but they would not provide me any further information. The reason I was told is due to security issues. When I try to contact Citi, I am told they don't see this dispute in their system, but then if I push them further I am told it is under fraud investigation. I have not been issued a security credit on these charges, nor have I been told when I can expect a resolution. Very frustrated with automated and unhelpful service when dealing with this scam on my card.
