Complaint:
This is not a duplicate nor is this complaint being filed by a third party, I am filing this complaint myself. Please see this complaint is processed to the letter of the law. 
I'm beyond annoyed. The account listed below was opened due to identity theft. I've provided you ( CFPB ) & XXXX with an affidavit & FTC fraudulent report to support my position. It seems EQUIFAX is violating FCRA sections 611, 616 & 617. They have provided ZERO VERIFIABLE PROOF & I feel are willful non complying and being truly negligent. I'd like this account blocked or removed based on 605b. This is my final request before I get my attorney involved because this matter has been creating an insane amount of emotional & physical distress. It's caused me restless nights & has caused me to miss work. My attorney told me I should just sue for violations in FCRA laws. I'd prefer to NOT get litigious. Please see this matter is handled. I'd like the account removed/blocked per 605b with the attached documents again... Thanks XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2015 Balance : XXXX Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) The following report included this language but Equifax is neglecting to process it to the letter of the law. Please see they are held accountable for as this is impacting my life in emotional, physical & financially... and I would truly not what to pursue a legal remedy ... and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ).
