Complaint:
I will not accept your attempt to downplay my identity theft claim as a mistake or misrepresentation of essential information. WHO HAS GIVEN YOU THE AUTHORITY TO DECIDE WHAT CONSTITUTES A SIGNIFICANT FACT? YOU ARE NOT A JUDGE, A JURY XXXX ANY POSITION TO MAKE SUCH JUDGMENTS! Your right to do so is non-existent. My distress arises because I have fallen victim to identity theft, a criminal act that has caused me severe emotional and financial turmoil. However, the response from your bureau, or rather the lack thereof, has shown a shocking disregard for the urgency and seriousness of my situation. Let me be perfectly clear : I will not tolerate the indifference and apathy I have encountered so far. As an identity theft victim, I have suffered from unauthorized accounts and transactions that have tarnished my credit profile and jeopardized my financial stability. The consequences have been severe, impacting my ability to obtain loans, mortgages, and even job opportunities. My rights as a consumer must be upheld, and justice must prevail. PLEASE DELETE THESE ACCOUNTS : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX  XXXX

Complaint:
I contacted my mortgage provider during covid 19 to indicate that I was unable to make payments as scheduled. I was approved for a XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and was told it was good for 6 months. In XXXX of XXXX, I called again and I was told I had several options for repayment. I could repay everything I owed all at once ( ( I was unable to do this ), I could go on a repayment plan or I would lose my home, the last option was to extend the forbearance. XX/XX/XXXX I extended the forbearance and was told it was good for another 6 months. XX/XX/XXXX, I called the loan provider and was only give the option of a repayment plan so I began the process of trying to figure out what was needed. I was told I would be called with options and or it sent in writing. No one ever called so I called again and was given these terms ; XXXX down payment and monthly payment would be XXXX for 12 months as the mortgage was XXXX. I began the payment plan in XXXX of XXXX. I then realized that my loan had been reported as DELINQUENT for 120+ days. I called and asked why this happened and was told the loan would be reported as delinquent for over a year. I asked why this was never told to me and furthermore if I was on a repayment plan why would this be reported. I received NO response. On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed that loan was closed, I called again and they indicated the loan had been sold but yet they are still reporting a loss on my credit report. I was under the understanding that the government had indicated that loans and mortgages would NOT be reported as a loss. I have been paying the loan back so not sure why this is happening. Please assist me as this will affect my score for the next 10 years. As many in the world, we have all been affected by COVID and my intentions were never to NOT pay and I have resumed paying my monthly payment of XXXX and an additional amount of {$1800.00} so I would not lose my home.

Complaint:
This CFPB Complaint serves as a follow up CFPB Complaint for my previous CFPB Complaint requesting that the Credit Reporting Agencies investigate and remove the accounts that resulted due to fraudulent activities. On XX/XX/2023, I sent a dispute letter to each of the Credit reporting Agencies to have the accounts removed from my Credit File. In those letters I attached copies of my personal identifying documents as well as the FTC report I received from the Federal Trade Commission for reporting the fraudulent accounts on my Credit Reports. I request the Credit Bureaus to thoroughly investigate the following accounts and have them removed from my Credit File in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act section 605b : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : {$0.00} XXXX XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Balance : {$3300.00}. These accounts were never made by me nor did I authorized anyone on my behalf to do so. These accounts are clearly fraudulent and must be removed from my Credit file the sooner the better. I have attached the letters I sent on XX/XX/2023 for I fear that the letters I sent would not be received by the Credit Bureaus. This complaint serves as my assurance for the Credit Bureaus to receive the letters.

Complaint:
I am writing to file a negligence and wrongful conduct complaint against Equifax. 

Equifax sent my dispute resolution to the person committing fraud against me, even after I sent the Equifax agent a picture of my driver 's license via their secure link they provided, with my address. 

Let me start from the beginning. On XX/XX/2021, I submitted an application to get pre-approved for a loan. The loan consultant found 4 collection accounts under my SSN with just Equifax, none of which belonged to me. With an average FICO score of XXXX, this had never happened to me, and I didn't know where to start. That same day I called Equifax directly, provided my SSN, and a picture of the front and back of my driver 's license through a direct and secure link the agent sent to my cell phone. 

He submitted the dispute over the phone, provided me with a confirmation number and said Equifax would mail me a resolution within 30 days. I waited and never received anything. 

On XX/XX/2021, forty-five days later, I called back, Equifax was having system issues and they showed me how I could pull some information online. Here I discovered Equifax had changed my last name and address. The previous 2 names showed my actual current married name and my maiden name ; under previous addresses, it showed my actual current address of 10 years and my correct previous address. This discovery helped me find the electronic letter of my dispute resolution showing Equifax mailed it to the person committing fraud against me with the incorrect address in my credit report. Which should have never happened, because my identity had to have been verified when the original agent collected my driver 's license information and saw that the names and address didn't match the current name and address. 

The process took longer and added additional stressors as I had to open different disputes to change my name and address back in order to file another dispute to remove the collection accounts. 

Three months and multiple phone calls later, Equifax deleted the collection accounts under my credit report. Though, I still feel like my personal information was violated by sending the person committing fraud against me a letter with my full birthdate, and the collections dispute information. 

I hope that this does not happen to anyone else. Having to fight against identity theft is a large burden, and the negligence of Equifax agents only worsens the situation.
