Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NC
Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
I am complaining to the CFPB that Equifax is retaliating against me for filing disputes against them for being dishonest and lying with regards to several disputes against Equifax and XXXX XXXX XXXX, and proved that Equifax had lied when they claim to have investigated these validation disputes regarding XXXX medical bills being reported by XXXX XXXX XXXX, where they admitted they never had validation for years and all three credit Bureaus lied when they said they investigated. If they had of investigated the disputes they would of found there was no validation info available until XXXX months ago when FDS sent me a medical statement violating my XXXX protection and have lied to the CFPB. 

Equifax are now retaliating against me and making my score low and leaving inquiries I have no connector with on my credit report and has systematically refused to remove inquiries off my credit report even after me providing the identity theft report and a police report. 

Retaliation. Please notify law enforcement. 

Someone tried to sabotage my credit report and none of these accounts have nothing to do with any of my accounts the XXXX which I verified. 

I have also placed fraud alerts as required, have followed all procedures, and I want an investigation into their failure to follow procedures. 

Again, per there request I have submitted an identify theft report and police report almost 4 times now to Equifax on inquiries that I did not create or consent to. They are not affiliated with any account that I began using after this date of each individual inquiry that was provided to them specifically for those inquiries as listed on the identity theft report. Equifax refuses to remove those inquiries provided to them months ago - that I once again, did not create or consent to. Equifax needs obey the law and remove these inquiries immediately as provided to them in the government documents.

HOW MUCH DOCUMENTATION does it take to get SOMEONE to REALLY DO SOMETHING?? LOOK at the attachments! XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX You asked for Documentation and I have given it.

Sub-issue: Account opened as a result of fraud

Complaint:
Around XXXX to XXXX of 2022 a fraudulent bank account was opened with Bank Of America and when I discovered the situation and reported it to the FTC and put a freeze on my credit and also the XXXX XXXX Bank of America XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX denied my claim of fraud even when I told them I never opened it and never did the deposits into the account. I requested the account be closed and put a flag of fraud in their system so that it wouldnt happen again and they sent me a letter stating my claim of fraud was denied. How can they deny my claim when I distinctly told them that wasnt me doing those transactions and also I made a report with the FTC and reported that I gave them and other banks that had been opened fraudulently. They sent me a letter saying they want all this information but where was this when the account was opened. Why did they let these people who opened the account fraudulently be able to make deposits and open an account without proof of who they were. What happened to signature cards and proof of identity before being able to do such things. I want the account ending in XXXX to be closed and no more opened. XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX didnt give me this much problem at all. Bank of America needs to close the account and I am calling the Federal Reserve about them too. Bank of America is aware the account has been reported as fraud but isnt doing anything about it. Why would I send them my IDs and other information when they clearly arent protecting my information or identity

Complaint:
I sent letters out to all 3 credit bureaus regarding items on my credit report that are not accurate which is a FCRA violation and you must abide by the law. All information I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I am the one sending the letters and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair or 3rd party. I know this is a violation of my rights due to the bureaus not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I just want these accounts to be removed from my credit report immediately or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I am trying to purchase a home soon and these negative items are holding my score back.

He told me it was pending on his end so it would go through if we didnt file a claim.

XXXX He sais the case number is attached to the amounts and it would flag if it tried to go through. The money was immediately gone from my account.

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

Complaint:
Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft. I've talked to the bank & they've agreed to remove the account. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not block the account because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the Identity Theft Report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the Identity theft report ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy ... Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove this files. If you feel there is a possibility this account belong to me I require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you 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. This account ( XXXX ) is unknown to me. Also, the information you provided on this account is DELETED from other bureaus and I have doubts in their accuracy and the reported payment history on this account is a mystery to me. As required by FCRA 605B ( c ) ( 1 ) ( C ) Authority to decline or rescind. XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2019 Balance : {$1000.00}
