Complaint:
Dear CFPB, Today I contacted Wells Fargo Bank again, and the call lasted for 50 minutes. They informed me that they have processed the following XXXX transactions and provided claim IDs : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX However, the issue is that when I asked whether I need to pay these pending claims next month, they kept transferring me to different departments without providing an answer. Finally, they told me that these claims are still waiting for me to provide documentation! 

I have already mentioned that I reported each claim to the bank over the phone, providing all the specific information based on the questions they asked. Yet, they refuse to process them and continue delaying intentionally. They claim that I havent provided the information, but how is it possible when I already have the claim IDs? It is clear that this bank is taking money without taking action! 

I hope the authorities will step in to supervise and address the disgraceful behavior of this unscrupulous bank!

Product: Debt collection
Sub-product: Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed
Sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

Complaint:
I have tried on several occasions to dispute a debt with XXXX XXXX/Jared that does not belong to me. When I pulled a credit report about 3 months ago while trying to purchase a home I was made aware that this account that was disputed with the credit bureau when it was only an inquiry. The inquiries were deleted and marked as Fraud. However, I was never advised or notified that the account was never closed after the credit bureau notified the creditor that the inquiry was fraud. I disputed the account with all 3 credit  bureaus in XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018, XX/XX/2018 and have made a 4th attempt on XX/XX/XXXX. Each time I am being advised that the account was verified. However, I have request for the verification proof to be mailed to me which I have not received as of XX/XX/2018. 

I have provided police reports as well as documentation from the Federal Trade Commission to which the creditor keeps ignoring. At this point I am reaching out to CFPB in hopes that you can assist with getting this erroneous/fraudulent account removed from my credit bureau reports. Furthermore, all of the information related to this account and does not belong to me. 

Lastly, this creditor has never made any contact with me via mail, phone or email until after the debt was disputed in XXXX. At that time I was asked about an alternate account with XXXX XXXX/Jared The Galleria and XXXX XXXXJared. The bank advised they were already aware of Fraud activity but never closed the accounts and advised they had mailed communication I never received. Even after communication back in XXXX, I was never advised of a late payment, an open/closed account, or any collection letters or phone calls.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: FL
Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service
Sub-product: Domestic (US) money transfer
Issue: Other transaction problem

Complaint:
At roughly XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/2022 my phone was stolen out of my hand while I was using it in public. As a result, the burglar was able to get into my password protected phone, and sent/spent over {$15000.00} using XXXX PayPal and XXXX linked to credit cards and checking accounts with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, PayPal and XXXX  of XXXX XXXX I notified all of my banks ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, PayPal ) of this situation the following day. XXXX XXXX, XXXX and XXXX reversed the transactions. PayPal, however, did not. PayPal did not reverse {$2000.00} in charges from PayPal sent to two individuals, and stated over the phone that it was my fault that this occurred. Despite successfully reversing the payment from XXXX, the source bank, they stated that if I did not pay this balance that it would be sent to collections, in my state of immense distress I paid the balance. 

After initiating the second complaint, PayPal responded that the unauthorized transaction was not unauthorized because " your login activity remained consistent before, at the time, and after the payments were initiated. '' Since this person *stole my phone* like I explained and was using my phone to perform these transactions, they of course would have the exact same login activity since they were clearly able to get into my phone and continue to make the transactions. PayPal for whatever reason is not able to grasp the fact that this person STOLE MY PHONE AND WAS USING IT. A phone is not a person and being able to get into a phone does not mean that the person using the phone is the owner of the account.

Since this is the third complaint that I have filed and PayPal has not paid me the money back, this will be the final complaint that I will file before initiating a lawsuit.
