Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Account information incorrect

Complaint:
This is XXXX XXXX XXXX, who is submitting this CFPB complaint myself, and to inform you that there is no third party involved in the process. I believe I am a victim of identity theft. Due to the Pandemic, we have been facing a lot of problems in terms of financial, emotional, and physical aspects. Also, I have been hearing a lot of recent news that the Bureau is having data and system issues. I disputed the fraudulent information from my credit report. I have no idea how the theft took place. I also have no knowledge of any suspects. I did not receive any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft. Regardless of the multiple written requests, the unverified accounts listed below are constantly reporting on my credit report in violation of federal law. The Equifax Credit Bureau failed to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC sections 1681i within the time declared by law and continued reporting of unconfirmed information which now, given all my attempts to address it directly with the creditor, as willful negligence and non-compliance with federal statutes. Please remove the following accounts completely from my Credit Reports : XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$100.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date XXXX XXXX XXXX {$190.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$92.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$150.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$150.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$130.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX {$91.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance XXXX {$850.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$99.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX : {$91.00} XXXX ( Original XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$780.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date XXXX Balance : {$58.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$280.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX {$230.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$92.00} XXXX XXXX Original Creditor : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Balance : {$55.00} XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance XXXX {$160.00} XXXX ( Original Creditor XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) XXXX Balance : {$70.00}

Issue: False statements or representation
Sub-issue: Indicated committed crime not paying

Complaint:
I received a call telling me that XXXX XXXX '' needed to confirm that I was going to home on Tuesday with ID to sign for a package. I asked who it was from he said HC XXXX. I explained that I did not want the package because I am not familiar with the sender. He then told me that he would forward through dispatch to the client who is sending it so that I can verify. I then was put on the phone with a gentleman telling me that a company was filing against me in XXXX County and he needed to send the me the documents. I advised him that I could not commit to be home during any 4 hour window on any day as I keep a busy schedule. HE then told me that he would advise XXXX County that I am a skip and they can deal with finding me. I said no problem sir, but for the record, your false legal jargon needs some updating because when a person is being sued, they are notified by the court so they do n't need your documents. Good Day! I called the XXXX County Courthouse and they advised me that they had no lawsuit pending AND that if a suit is filed and a court date issued they will provide me with the paperwork via certified mail or deputy service. Anyone who gets a call from these people, write it down because this process they are using will hurt them in court! I tried to call the number back to the so called courier service and no one would answer. Then I tried from my home phone an still no answer. Low and behold they called back and the name on the caller ID said " Hewitt Capital ''. I am assuming that this is what the HC in HC XXXX stands for. I guess they either own XXXX XXXX or they were ( and I am sure this is it because according to the real company XXXX XXXX whose number I found online, they are not affiliated ) misrepresenting themselves in order to try and collect a debt. I felt threatened, the conversation made no sense because I initially though he was telling my that I was being sued by the county that I live in. I called my country courthouse and they stated that there was no pending action against me for this company and that they would have served any papers to me. This man made me think I was suppose to be in court next week!! Gave a XXXX XXXX in the middle of lunch with my toddler, thought I was going to have to go to the hospital!

Complaint:
I have Tried to get transunion to get this bankruptcy off my transunion report due to this not being mine and its being reported incorrectly, Transunion has always told me that it was verified by the courts them selves which is a lie due to me calling and asking the Court Clerk to see how they verify bankruptcy 's and the Clerk told me that they dont give out any of that information so right there it cant be verified by the original creditor which is the Bankruptcy  XXXX  and for another thing why would someone file bankruptcy if their liabilty is  XXXX  and the  XXXX  amount was  XXXX  also so there is never a person that is going to file a bankruptcy court case if they dont have any debts so Again I am asking for Transunion to Get rid of this bankruptcy off my credit report.

Issue: Improper use of your report
Sub-issue: Reporting company used your report improperly

Complaint:
Due to the EQUIFAX data breach, my personal/identity information has been leaked. I, the consumer NEVER gave EQUIFAX my written consent to use, sell, report or hold any of my personal/identifying information to begin with. EQUIFAX has committed " identity theft ''. I am aware the term " identity theft ' as described XXXX15 U.S.Code 1681a ( q ) ( 3 ) and Regulation V 12 CFR 1022.3 is a fraud committed or attempted using the identifying information of another person without authority. I did not give EQUIFAX consent to use, hold, report or profit off of my information, but that's exactly what they've been doing, which has now led to my information being leaked on the dark web after the data breach. Ive submitted my claim for a potential {$20000.00} payout for my losses. Even though my losses were upward of {$200000.00} due to the inaccurate, unverified, unauthorized information they have on me.
