Complaint:
On XXXX I sent Equifax a letter requesting the removal of incorrect information and updating my personal information with their company. When I pulled my credit report in XX/XX/2020 I noticed they had failed to respond with the removal as required by law. This has undoubtedly hurt my credit and left me open to identity theft and fraud as the result of addresses on my report showing incorrectly. My score reflected on other credit services is much higher than Equifax because they have failed to clean up the errors they are responsible to maintain. They have shown they are not a trustworthy company and don't have the integrity to keep the responsibility of safeguarding peoples credit.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: NC
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: I do not know
Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint:
I received a letter on XX/XX/2020 from a firm called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that they were the new owner and creditor for my " referenced account. '' The referenced account was listed as " PAYPAL ACCOUNT. '' After reviewing my e-mails and PayPal and XXXX accounts, I was not able to determine what the balance was from as I had not received any e-mails from PayPal notifying that I had a balance that needed to be paid. The only notification I received was an e-mail on XX/XX/2020 from PayPal stating that my balance had been sold to the creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

The letter sent by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/2020 states that payment of the amount of debt must be paid within 30 days to avoid reporting on my credit report, and subsequent damage to my pristine credit history. 

The reason that I am writing a complaint for fraud is that balance in question had already been paid to XXXXPayPal in XX/XX/2020. There was not attempt by PayPal/eBay to notifying me of the balance they sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX of " Balance : $ XXXX '' as stated in the e-mail they sent notifying me of the sale of the balance on XX/XX/2020. 

While I was initially unaware as to what this balance could be when receiving the letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I determined that it was from the sale of a pair of shoes on XX/XX/2020 and the associated fees with the sale that created the alleged past due balance were paid prior to my transfer from XXXX to my bank account. 

In this case, I believe that PayPal and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are both fraudulent operators. PayPal 's fraudulent activity including the sale of accounts receivables to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in which they had already received payment from the initial customer. 

I believe that XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is behaving fraudulently by knowingly pressuring customers of PayPal who have had their fraudulent " balances '' sold to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to pay these balances immediately due to the creditor 's threat of causing of harmful implications to consumer credit reports and scores if their payment is not made within 30 days of notification of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 's ownership of the balance and request for payment.
