Ive been a victim of identity theft since XXXX along with the Equifax data breach and an another breach leaking all my info including bank accts social and logins. Due to all of this i now have accounts on my report from XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, another XXXX, a utility, and 9 accounts opened but closed by creditor right away. I hsve over 160 inquiries, my name on my reports has 8 different spellings. XXXX XXXX sent multiple emails dated back to XXXX declining some transactions and alllwimg some. Ive attached photos. They then credited me back for all of it. XXXX and all the accounts opened without my knowledge are not helping. Ive filed 2 police reports 2 ftc reports, closed my account with XXXX XXXX but all the accounts in both ftc identity theft reports are not mine. This is affecting my life. I have disputed them 3 times with proof. They even used my bank accounts to pay on open accounts. XXXX did conclude it was fraud and reimburse me but the creditors have sent some to charge off including late payments and none of this is mine.

Complaint:
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 USC 1681, Section 602a ), it is imperative to ensure that consumer reporting agencies conduct their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a regard for the consumer 's right to privacy. Equifax and XXXX, being consumer reporting agencies, interact with me as the consumer. I possess the right to safeguard my private information, as reinforced by 15 USC 6801, which dictates that financial institutions have an ongoing obligation to respect customer privacy and safeguard nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX XXXX falls under the definition of a financial institution in compliance with this policy. Under 15 USC 1681, Section 604a, Subsection 2, it is stated that a consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report only upon the written instructions of the relevant consumer. Both XXXX XXXX XXXX and the consumer reporting agencies, Equifax and XXXX, do not possess my consent to disclose this information, nor do they possess my written consent. I hereby revoke any and all forms of consent, whether verbal, non-verbal, written, implied, or otherwise. 15 USC 6802 ( b ) ( c ) specifies that a financial institution can not disclose nonpublic personal information to a nonaffiliated third party without informing the consumer of their right to exercise a nondisclosure option. XXXX XXXX XXXX never informed me of my right to exercise this option. Furthermore, 15 USC 1681C ( a ) ( 5 ) explicitly prohibits consumer reporting agencies from including certain adverse information in consumer reports without authorization. This account is being reported as adverse without my permission, which is in violation of the law. Additionally, 15 U.S. Code 1681s2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A prohibits the furnishing of inaccurate information to consumer reporting agencies, and 15 U.S. Code 1681e requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain reasonable procedures to avoid violations of Section 1681c and restrict the furnishing of consumer reports to specified purposes. Equifax and XXXX appear to be failing to maintain reasonable procedures. Moreover, 12 CFR 1016.7 affirms my right to opt out of reporting services at any time. Therefore, I am exercising my right to opt out of your reporting services

Complaint:
XX/XX/2020 I called because I had received a letter stating that I was delinquent by {$0.00} and owed {$0.00}. I had gotten many calls and emails so I finally called and asked what was going on. The first cs agent told me I was fine, the second one stated that I did have a bad balance. So I immediately made a payment. Then this didn't work. I had to call again, after receiving another similar letter. I spoke with a supervisor, XXXX, she apologized and said that all I have to do is make a payment to correct the problem, send an email to the credit department and she will get it corrected, this was XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX we are now in XXXX, and there is no resolution, in fact they are being argumentative about the whole thing. I want my credit fixed immediately. They made an error and are refusing to accept their part of the responsibility. We had near-perfect credit before they did this to us.

Complaint:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX OH XXXX Notice for Proof of Claim Account : FIRST FED CREDIT CONTROL # XXXX To Whom it may Concern : This is a this complaint is submitted Under OHIO LAW U.C.C 1319.12 Taking assignment of debts States ( C ) No collection agency shall commence litigation for the collection of an assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness unless it has taken the assignment in accordance with all of the following requirements : Credit contracts are non-assignable even if the contract has a clause for assign ability because it violates contract Law. Where there is no fair valuable consideration given, the contract or agreement is void ab inito. The debt is non-transferable. If it is a contract for credit or goes to the character of the parties, it can not be transferred or assigned. No state can make a law impairing contracts, Under OHIO LAW U.C.C 1319.12 Taking assignment of debts ( 3 ) The assignment was manifested by a written agreement separate from and in addition to any document intended for the purpose of listing the account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness with the collection agency. The written agreement shall state the effective date of the assignment and the consideration paid or given, if any, for the assignment and shall expressly authorize the collection agency to refer the assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness to an attorney admitted to the practice of law in this state for the commencement of litigation.

The written agreement also shall disclose that the collection agency may consolidate, for purposes of filing an action, the assigned account, bill, or other evidence of indebtedness with those of other creditors against an individual debtor or co-debtors. Dartmouth College v. Woodward 4 Wheat 518 : White v. Hart, 13 Id 646. Once the Creditor writes off a debt, it can not be assigned or Collected.

Complaint:
My wife applied for a car loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX and needed a co-signer which I agreed to do. However, the dealer put this loan in my name which I did not authorize. I didn't sign anything and wasn't even present during this deal. The car they sold us was a lemon which explains why they were trying to rush this through. 

The loan, which started on XX/XX/XXXX, is through Credit Acceptance. They and the dealer have acknowledged that this is  an illegal loan and told me to return the car to the dealership which i did on XX/XX/XXXX. The dealer has since relisted the car. I contacted Credit Acceptance multiple times to get this illegal loan out of my name and they are telling me they can't until the dealer releases the loan. Why does a bank, who's financing this, need to wait dealer to terminate the loan? And if this loan is still technically in my name, how is it that XXXX XXXX XXXX has it relisted for sale?
