Complaint:
CMG Financial, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX NJ XXXX has made mistakes with the escrow account. These mistakes started when they started servicing the loan. There mistakes contributed to the escrow account shortage. They sent notification of escrow shortage in the amount of {$1400.00} which is incorrect.

This shortage amount caused my monthly payment to increase from {$660.00} to {$760.00}. I was never given the correct shortage amount. I was never given the option to " pre-pay '' escrow along with the correct shortage amount to keep my monthly mortgage payment from increasing. Transactions appeared on escrow summary statement that I questioned and they did not provide an answer for those transactions. I wasn't given all the information requested in my letter.

Complaint:
I received notification on XX/XX/XXXX that there was an inquiry to my credit today. I received this information through the alerts I have set on XXXX XXXX, Capital One, and XXXX. I presumed it was for an automatic credit line increase, thus I ignored it for the time being. However, I missed a call from an 800 number. The voicemail left stated they were calling from the Capital One application fraud department, and needed to speak to me. I called Capital One directly, and they didn't show an application in my name. However, I did call that number that called me back, and they had the same voice prompts and hold music. I did not give any personal information to this person, just in case. They had all of my information which they stated was used to apply for this card, which was done online on XX/XX/XXXX. They have cancelled the application. I have since frozen my credit with all 3 bureaus.

Especially since it happened while I was traveling. 
The sent me to the FTC.gov and my case there is ref # XXXXThey said it would be Capital One who would be the one to remove the fraudulent charge. 
They said to contact the XXXX Division of Capital One.
