Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
I am a natural person and consumer writing this statement from my own knowledge and research of the laws that protect consumers from fraud and other deceptive practices that harm a consumers character, reputation etc. 

I am aware the Bureau is in place to assist me in enforcing my right and to ensure that I am not taken advantage of as a consumer. 

On XX/XX/2021 XXXX  XXXX removed 6 Inquiries from my consumer report. The deletion was based on violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act that I submitted to XXXX  XXXX in XXXX. When there are damages done, remedy is to follow pursuant to XXXX XXXX XXXX for civil liability, which XXXX  XXXX is accountable for. XXXX  XXXX may be held criminally liable pursuant to 15 USC 1611 for harming my reputation with fraudulent and private information shared on my consumer report. 

I submitted a request for remedy and it was left unanswered. I have never given written consent to XXXX  XXXX to report about me as a consumer and through many phone conversations they have given me the run-around about removing fraud from my report. They claim to have done investigative reports but have not provided proof that interviews with my friends, family, or close associates have taken place pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( e ). I was laughed off the phone when I mentioned this federal law.

I demanded the block and removal of the fraud that has taken place due to identity theft pursuant to 15 USC 1681c-2 ( a ). I have provided my US Passport, Social Security Credit Card ( 15 USC 1602 ( L ) ) and my XXXX bill to help identify myself according to federal law.

All accounts and Inquires I listed on my Federal Trade Commission Identity theft report shall be removed, as it is my written instruction in my letter and this complaint through the bureau. 

Any account that has been " Investigated '' please attach any interviews that took place with my friends, family, or associates that would be able to validate the account, pursuant to 15 USC 1681a ( e ). The furnisher of the reports are not Original Creditors, I am. block and remove those accounts listed, they are fraud.

XXXX  LLC is not a bureau, but an agency that congress called, " An elaborate mechanism '' that assumed a " grave responsibility. '' Now, on XX/XX/2021 I am conversing by way of the Bureau because I have tried numerous phone calls and letters to no avail, with XXXX  XXXX.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
Experian and XXXX  continue to report inaccurate information. I have disputed this issue several times. I have requested the reported information be verified and validated with the original agreement, agreement or account with my signature matching the dates they continue to report. The companies refuse to provide me a copy of my request. Instead alter information reporting and lying stating the information has been verified as accurate and continue to report. Neither Experian nor XXXX  reports state the same exact information and both should be held accountable for supplying information like that when their mistakes determine if a person has to walk or can buy a car. These reporting agencies have very bad unethical habits of reporting and supplying negative information which is a violation of a consumers right to fair reporting. Please see attached documents. Under no circumstances should credit reporting be allowed without actual documents to validate and verify what is reported. Because experian and equifax have refused and failed to provide me a copy of validation, I demand the derogatory report permanently removed and deleted from my report.
