Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: FL
Product: Mortgage
Sub-product: Conventional home mortgage
Issue: Applying for a mortgage or refinancing an existing mortgage

Complaint:
Wells Fargo : This is Predatory lending : I was predatorily places on a loan as a co-signer, a loan I could not possibly qualified for, since I already had a mortgage on my primary residence. I was not on title or have any Ownership interest in the property, I did not reside at the property, since I had my own homestead. I certainly could not afford to pay and would not pay this mortgage if the owner fails to pay. All part of 2008 sub-prime loan debacle, lenders shuffling paperwork to get loans approved, some borrowers got loan modification, short-sale, banks bailouts. As a co-signer I got nothing, but problems, which was never fully disclosed to me, as was required by law : 12 CFR 706.3 - Unfair  or deceptive cosigner practices. No one explain or provided the disclosure that this loan will prevent me from qualifying for other loans and will affect my credit score, I got no disclosure. The Lender representative was only interested in getting the documentation to get the loan approved. 12 CFR 706.3 - Unfair or deceptive cosigner practices.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Per the FCRA, I am a federally protected consumer. According to the law, consumer reporting agencies are to exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are classified as consumer reporting agencies, and I by definition am the Consumer. Pursuant to 15 U.S Code 6801, it is the policy of Congress that each financial institution has an affirmative and continuing obligation to respect the privacy of its customers and to protect the security and confidentiality of those customers nonpublic personal information. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXer 15 U.S Code 6801 is defined as a financial institution ; of which I am sure the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency [ would ] consider any information that this institution engaged in illegal credit practices before the end of the institutions next performance evaluation. XXXX XXXX XXXX is in violation of 15 U.S Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ). See Exhibit A. XXXX XXXX XXXX  is under the regulation of many laws and as previously mentioned one of those is the FCRA, which states the term consumer report DOES NOT INCLUDE any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report. Pursuant to 15 U. S Code 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) the publishing of any adverse item of information should not be on any consumer report. It clearly states except as authorized under subsection ( b ), 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 records of convictions of crimes which antedates the report by more than seven years. This is a violation as they are reporting these items without my permission. See Exhibit B for the account I, the consumer, am speaking of. 15 U.S Code 1681e states every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violation of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title.

Company: Convergent Resources, Inc.
State: WY
Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
Sent FTC letters ( Around XX/XX/XXXX ) with notice to furnish proof of the debt as well as to cease collection of the debt and to delete any derogatory marks on credit reports as per identity theft guidelines under the FCRA. The company has failed to remove the derogatory marks from the credit reports as well as failed to cease collection. Upon calling them this past week they claimed to have validated the debt and sent multiple letters. I have had no issues receiving letters from them before, however, the debt validation letters and any info as to what they are doing regarding the fraud were not received. 

Phone representative was aggressive and dismissive, claiming the postal service failed to deliver the letters and gave no intention of resending the letters. My FTC ID theft complaint letters were received on XX/XX/XXXX by Convergent Outsourcing and they only a few business days later reported the collections to all the credit bureaus. It appears no action was taken to respond to the ID theft claim, no investigation, no attempt to right the situation, and a complete disregard for FCRA regulation that collections be ceased and that reporting also be ceased to the credit bureaus.

Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Equifax has exposed my personal information in a data breach. They have been reckless and abusive with consumer data and it's unacceptable. If they do not resolve this issue below, I will file a small claims suit in my state for a much larger amount. These debt collectors and consumer reporting agencies can not continue to get away with putting consumers lives and consumer reports in danger. I need to be compensated for this error immediately. Several federally protected consumers laws have been violated and we can start with, permissible purposes for which consumer reports are most commonly sought are those identified in FCRA section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ). This is also defamation of character as my consumer report has reflected fraudulent items recently. They need to settle for {$3000.00} immediately. I have attached the document that confirms I was violated and my information was exposed.
