I have been a victim of identity theft and it seems that this will be a never ending miserable issue for me. The credit cards with XXXX  XXXX XXXX were opened fraudulently not by me.

Now, these accounts are in collections and reporting on my credit files again with a different creditor, XXXX XXXX XXXX. This is not only frustrating but it is also causing a negative impact to my credit file for an account I never had!

Complaint:
I sent money to someone on XXXX. I was purchasing XXXX XXXX tickets. 
I sent the money to the person but it wasn't who I thought it was. 
I thought I was sending money to a friend but I learned that their XXXX was hacked so the person I sent the money to wasn't my friend. It was a scammer. I sent the money to the person and I never got the tickets that I thought I was purchasing. I submitted 3 disputes with PNC to get my money back but I had no luck. PNC should have better technology where they can detect that I was being scammed. They should be able to get my money back since I was scammed. I was a victim. I am a current client of theirs and the least they can do is give me my money back. They are a horrible bank.

Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with fraud alerts or security freezes

Complaint:
I need to temporarily remove a credit freeze that I placed with Equifax after their security breach. I called and talked to XXXX ( ID : XXXX ). I was asked many specific personal questions, which I answered ( including my date of birth, address, social security number, etc. ). I was then asked a long list of extremely vague questions, such as 'have you closed any accounts in the last ten years, who were they with and what were their ending account balances? '. I gave them a huge amount of information during the call trying to answer the open and ambiguous questions. None of the questions relating to my credit history were specific - just requests for any information I could remember from the last 10 years. I was then told that they could not release my credit freeze. The only option given to me for unfreezing my credit was to send a copy of my social security card and drivers license through the physical mail, which makes me extremely uncomfortable and seems reckless.
