The company Credit Acceptance is currently investigating a car loan that was taken out using my personal information which I have been trying to have removed from my credit report I am filing this complaint to ensure this is taken seriously and this account is thoroughly investigated.I filed a complaint and also called and spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX she advised me to mail back an identity theft affidavit, my ID, and a sheet of paper with my signature written 5 times. I sent the mail to credit acceptance with the requested information as well as a letter requesting that they provide me with proof of my original wet signatures and additional information, original documents signed on the day this alleged account was opened so I could provide as much assistance as possible in investigating how this account was opened I never received any response but my credit report said the dispute was resolved. I contacted the credit bureaus to affirm the account does not belong to me and they said unfortunately they rely on credit Acceptance to complete an investigation and they recommended that I contact the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

This whole account was done in a fraudulent way upon review of retail install contract attached to my previous complaint seems the dealership placed in fact that { {$7000.00} } was put down when In fact { {$8000.00} } was put down any money more issue including outrages APR rates I call SCAM. This issues with credit acceptance has been ongoing I would like this tradeline removed immediately.
