Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Complaint:
To Whom It May Concern, I received a copy of my credit report with the intention of trying to improve my credit and take care of my responsibilities and noticed a few accounts that I wanted a little more explanation on. I am not saying they are reporting right or wrong. I am just saying that I am not 100 percent sure if they are. I also read something called the Fair Credit Reporting Act where it said by law, I had the right to challenge anything I am not sure is accurate. Some of the people reporting things on me, I have never heard of which made me write to you.

These discrepancies are honestly impacting my life. I never authorized these, and this constitutes a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act 604 as well violation to my privacy. I am requesting your credit bureau to initiate an investigation to determine the responsible parties. I respectfully request a copy of any documents and an updated copy of my credit report according to 15 U.S.C.Sec.1681i ( a )? there should be no charge. 

XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Thank you for your time and help in this matter. 
Thanks

Complaint:
I went to the ATM made a deposit and requested a {$200.00} fast cash withdraw. The machine told me to take my card which I did and then the machine acted as though I took my cash and told me to take my receipt. I immeditately went into the bank and told the tellers what had happened and they filed a complaint and temporarly posted the funds back into my account. I received a letter from the bank 10 days later stating after investigation they found no errors on their end and they debited the money back out of my account. The bank staff told me I would have to file a police report for the secuity footage to show whether I received my funds or not. I tried to file a police report and the police say this is a civil matter. The bank is refusing to look at the footage.

Complaint:
I fell a victim to an online scam. I applied for a job with a non-profit organization through XXXX. The company reached out to me for an " on-line job interview. '' After interviewing, which had seemed legit at the time, I received a job offer the next day from the company 's email address directly. I signed it back, informed the " interviewer '' that I sent over the signed letter. One thing they had stated was that they would send me a " start-up check '' of an amount : {$2400.00} to purchase start-up equipment. This was supposed to be a work from home opportunity. I had never received an on-line check before, so I called the bank it was issued from to confirm it was a valid check and safe to use. They were able to confirm that it was a real account and seemed accurate. I went ahead and deposited it. After receiving strange requests from the " interviewer '', who would have also been my " supervisor to report to, '' I felt odd. This person was telling me things such as to go to an ATM machine and withdraw money that they wanted me to put into a bitcoin account via a XXXX ATM. I called Chase bank right away to inform them that something strange was happening. I wanted them to cancel the check I had deposited, however, I was told they were not able to do that. They instead advised I go into a bank to close the current account to protect my money. I did. The banker created a replacement account for me. A day later I tried to make a purchase because I thought everything was fine. The purchase was declined. I called Chase only for them to tell me that my accounts were being closed and that they can not bank with me in the future. They are not giving me any reason, explanation, and claim that they do not have any records of me creating this new account because it was a replacement so it shows as if it were opened years ago with the rest of them. They have not at all been helpful. I called the Federal Trade Commission to inform them of all parties involved in the scam. If needed, the reference number is XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am very worried this will affect my ability to bank with another party. Please advise. I am at a total loss and I am worried, angry, and upset. 

I also reached out to the organization that " hired me '' on their XXXX page. They informed that it was a scammer that they were trying to stop. I sent them every screenshot, email address, and the image of the check that was sent to me. I am not sure if those would be helpful to you, but please let me know if it is needed. I would be happy to provide all proof.
