Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, XXXX I notified Trans Union of my being a victim of identity theft. I have had to reach out to them and each time I am connected to a person that is not located in the United States who does not know Federal Law and consistently misinforms consumers. For instance, today, XXXX XXXX, XXXX I was told they are not required to follow up on disputes where the creditor does not abide by Federal Law and its essentially 'not legal ' for them to update a credit report even when fraud is confirmed. 
This company is permitting its agents to willfully misguide and misinform consumers on laws they are not themselves, bound by, given they are in a completely different country. 
My rights under the FCRA are being violated by this CRA permitting false and fraudulent information to stay on my credit in the face of confirmed fraud and identity theft.

Complaint:
Related to complaint XXXX. Without a signed contract ( even an electronic signature ), a company can not provide a legal basis the account was opened by the person in question. Your office continues to state I opened this account and benefited from this account but have yet to provide even an electronic signature bearing my signature. Note, " When a person opens a fraudulent account, they use another person 's personal verified information but have the account information sent to another address ''. This was the case here! By your own words, you agree with these statements. 

Please note the following : 1. I have never lived at the address in Alabama where the account was opened showing this account was fraudulent when it was opened. This account was opened by a person with the last four XXXX living in Alabama. 

2. The letter regarding {$200.00} was not included for review and signature. Also, after receiving your letter stating I notified your office regarding the account was when I sent your office a letter stating this account was fraudulent and started the dispute process. Further, I have never needed to file for bankruptcy as my current credit card utilization is 11 % out of $ XXXX. IF proven, I would/ could pay this account in full - but your organization refuses to provide documentation. I have worked extremely hard to maintain my credit rating. 

3. The lawfirm is the second to contact me and decline to pursue collection because the information can not be verified by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Again, you agree you do not have a signed ( even electronic signature ) proving the account was opened by me but another person from Alabama with the last four XXXX. 

4. XXXX and XXXX credit agencies have deleted the information because the account can not be verified in accordance with the FCRA.

5. Your office is in violation of the FCRA. If you could provide ANY signed documentation I opened this account, you would provide it! The bank is intentionally ruining my credit rating with XXXX.

Complaint:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts, or items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA the 3 Credit Bureaus are required by law to remove & block any accounts or information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files. 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 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX} ; If the credit bureaus feel there is a possibility these items belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires them to verify with 100 % accuracy that each item is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If they do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Complaint:
I have attempted to reach out to Citibank a few times in regards to an identity theft issue. I have never opened an account with them, nor have they sent me a credit card statement. The only thing that I have received from them in the last few months is multiple offers for new lines of credit. Their negligence in regards to this matter has caused me major XXXX and XXXX. This is my last resort. I will be going to legal counsel this next week if this is not resolved. I also wanted to forward this over to the CFPB for investigation on your end. I live at a home that I have owned for the past few years. I find that Citibank has acted in complete negligence or with fraudulent intent if I have not received any information in regards to a matter that I have local law enforcement looking into. Citibank tried to blame this on the local post office. The post office actually contacted me in regards to this to indicate that they have investigated the matter and found that no one is forwarding my mail to another address or anything that they can control. The local police department reached out to me and are currently investigating this crime that has been committed against me. What does Citibank do? They call me twice. Once to try and sell me a " credit monitoring package '' which I am not interested in. Why would I want someone who obviously ca n't figure out how to issue a line of credit to the correct person in the first place monitoring my credit? The second call was at XXXX XXXX in the evening when I was trying to navigate on a road that I was unfamiliar with in TN. I had to disconnect the call. I spoke with some gentleman anothe time and he said that someone would get back to me. No one ever did. Overall my complaint is 1. I never took opened a line of credit with this company. I filed a police report. They do not want to acknowledge this. This was caught by other lenders XXXX XXXX ( who I had an account with previously ) and XXXX and they decided not to issue the line of credit. 2. Absolutely no one will call me back in regards to this. 3. From everything else that has gone on with other companies, I have no other believe than that someone internally over at Citibank opened a line of credit under my name and they are refusing to acknowledge this. This is hurting my overall XXXX XXXX by over XXXX points. I either need your assistance or need to contact an attorney to litigate this matter. Please help me CFPB. Thank you for your time and my apologies in regards to the long message on this.
