Complaint:
I tried to dispute several accounts on my file 2 months ago and I did not get proper information and explanation back from the credit bureau. I have wrong previous addresses, several accounts that are not supposed to be late on or charged off and in collections. I am also requesting to Validate several accounts listed in the very detailed letter of explanation enclosed. So please see letter and don't ask for more information as this request is very detailed and complete. You-equifax are not compliant because of the lack of detailed response my previous dispute asked for and should now delete all information I am disputing because of your failure to be compliant and follow the law.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I'm unable to get in contact with SageStream via phone call as i'm rerouted to the automatic voicemail system and properly ignored every time. Their voicemail service says that they would give me a call back within 1 business day, but i have already left 4 messages and waited 2 weeks with no reply. Another option is to contact them via " secure fax '' or by mail, but looking further on their website at ( https : //www.sagestreamllc.com/consumer-report/ ), they want a photo copy of my State ID, which is NOT required by all 3 major credit reporting agencies like XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, including XXXX. Additionally, if anything on my State Issued ID is different than what they have on file, say a change in address, they REQUIRE further verification information of my name, address, phone number, birthday, AND social security information by sending them a copy of very sensitive personnel information. They want an actual photo copy of my Social Security card, U.S Passport ( picture page ), Alien Registration card, or my Military Identification card ( front and back ). Again, this is NOT required by the major credit reporting agencies like XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, or XXXX. Which leaves me wondering if this is a SCAM. Another way for predatory companies to siphon off even more private information, information that no one has ever asked of me before, other than State and Federal government for official use, NOT private companies. Not to mention, I don't believe it is legal to make copies of or to reproduce government issued ID of any kind ( especially social security cards and passports ) and be given to anyone period. Unless I'm wrong here, no private company should request any of this for " verification purposes ''. Something smells fishy ... Makes me want to get XXXX ... but wait ... upon further research online, this is what i found : " Sage Stream '' Credit reporting - Owned by and gets information from " ID Analytics '' - owned by " XXXX '' provider of Identity theft products - owned by " XXXX XXXX '' which also operates " XXXX '' provider of computer security softwares. 

Basically what should be of concern to people, is the very fact that a company that sells it's product use to users by installing such software on their computer for security purposes, has the ability to use their software to read and analyze your habits, your page visits, your completed purchases, etc. 

This information may indeed allow mischief on their part, in order to gain new customers for their XXXX services. In addition all of this information and data can then be and is most likely given to " ID Analytics '', which ultimately provides this data to a credit reporting agency called Sage Stream, all of the above in which is owned by " XXXX XXXX ''. 

XXXX : XXXX YOU FRAUDS, HOW ARE YOU LEGAL??!!!!

Regardless of the multiple written requests, the ITEMS listed below are still reporting on my credit report which is a violation of FCRA. The Bureaus failed to comply with Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law, they failed to properly investigate the matter by using a third party as their verification provider and have continued reporting the unconfirmed & unverified information. Given all my attempts to address it directly with 3 CREDIT BUREAUS, they are willfully negligent and non-complying with federal statutes & I need this matter handled immediately.

On XX/XX/2021 I sent a letter regarding an accurate and unknown things on my credit report to this day over 60 days later I have not received a response yet. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of and being ignored of my disputes. Failure to investigate these items within 30 days gives a reason to immediately remove those items from my credit report. It has been over 60 days so they have to be deleted. Filing for litigation due to the stress would be the next step for me to take. The wrong person my have used information which was impacted by the Equifax data breach.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the list of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681, defamed my character and caused me great emotional and physical stress : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 

For my student loans- The reporting of these account ( s ) are violations of 15 USC 1681a, The Fair Credit Reporting Act [ 15 USC 1681 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) ] : ( 2 ) EXCLUSIONS.Except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ), the term consumer report does not include ( B ) any authorization or approval of a specific extension of credit directly or indirectly by the issuer of a credit card or similar device; Under the Truth in Lending Act 15 USC 1602 ( g ), credit card is defined as the following : The term credit card means any card, plate, coupon book or other credit device existing for the purpose of obtaining money, property, labor, or services on credit. 

This makes my social security card, drivers license/ID, and license plate credit cards that are/were used for the extension of credit.

For the other accounts : 12 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A states I have the right to privacy.

15 U.S.C 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

15 U.S.C 1681c. ( a ) ( 5 ) states : no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information : Any other adverse item of information, other than the records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years.

15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) states a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate.

The reporting of these accounts is a violation as I have not given written consent to furnish, my privacy has been violated and I have reason to believe the data reported is inaccurate since they do not match across any consumer reporting agency. DELETE THESE ACCOUNTS FROM MY CONSUMER REPORT.

Please send me an updated report upon completion of my request.
