Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Complaint:
My name Is XXXX XXXX and this is my formal notice of complaint against LexisNexis for furnishing information to the credit reporting agencies XXXX XXXX XXXX without my permission. This has been an invasion of my right to privacy and is causing me XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and inconvenience. 

I have reached out to LexisNexis on several occasions to resolve this issue and my requests have been ignored. 

According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, in order to furnish the alleged XXXX XXXX  XXXX LexisNexis would need to be able to both VALIDATE and VERIFY my information with the original creditor. XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX has assured me it is not within their policies or obligation to validate any public records via correspondence they provided me with via postal mail, please see the attached exhibits. 
So how was this information validated and verified? 

Pursuant 15 U.S. Code 6821 ( a ) -Prohibition on obtaining customer information by false pretenses. 

by providing any document to a financial institution ( consumer reporting agency ), knowing that the document is forged, counterfeit, lost, or stolen, was fraudulently obtained, or contains a false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation. 

Also by providing any document to an agent of a financial institution ( consumer reporting agency ), knowing that the document is forged, counterfeit, lost, or stolen, was fraudulently obtained, or contains a false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation. 

LexisNexis claimed to have reviewed my previous requests for validation and verification in which they mailed a resolution letter with an updated copy of my LexisNexis file on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX ( See attached exhibits ) ... and is somehow still requesting that I authenticate my identity .... 

If LexisNexis is unable to authenticate my identity then HOW in the world were they able to provide me with resolutions to my previous requests? 

Furthermore the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ( GLBA ) Protects the personal and financial information of their customers against unauthorized access or use, Not disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties, unless the consumer receives sufficient notice. Give customers the opportunity to opt out from having their information shared in certain situations. 

I was NEVER given the opportunity to opt out of having my information furnished by LexisNexis. I am aware that XXXX, XXXX and Lexis Nexis may be working as co-conspirators to ruin my financial reputation & shall be held criminally liable if they do not delete these items immediately from my credit reports. I am also aware that this may result in a criminal complaint under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act ( RICO ) listing if they can not show me how they were lawfully able to obtain and furnish this alleged bankruptcy. 

Please review the attached Exhibits that support my claims.

Company response to consumer: Closed with explanation
