Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA the 3 credit bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files.

If the credit bureaus do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Complaint:
SYNB/XXXX  XXXX or XXXX appears on my credit reports as a " Charge-off '' account. However, the {$670.00} charged-off amount consists of a {$180.00} fraudulent expense along with {$490.00} of late fees. This fraudulent expense appeared on a XXXX account, which I never opened, and for the expense to " XXXX XXXX '', which is XXXX XXXX 's wife from the cartoon. I have disputed this at least once per year. The Synchrony Bank has written off the expense and closed the account that I never open, but the {$670.00} expense appears on my credit reports as a charge-off and unreconciled. As a result, the credit score for each agency is XXXX points less. This has led to me not being able to get the best mortgage rate causing {$100.00} 's more per month.

I paid the entire amount off by XXXX ( Last check, ck # XXXX for {$7400.00}, the last payoff, cashed XX/XX/2014. ) Now, 6.5 yrs later, Experian says XXXX claims a " WRITE OFF of {$7400.00} ) There was no " write-off ''! It's a scam to imply a bad debt for their tax advantage. Was this claimed on their taxes? And how many other victims experienced the same scam? They're ruining my credit 6.5 years later! Experian says they checked my dispute and XXXX  stands by the " WRITE-OFF '' even though they recognize it was paid. I need to know if this is a practice ...
