Issue: Incorrect information on your report
Sub-issue: Information belongs to someone else

Complaint:
On XX/XX/2022 I summitted a complaint with the CFPB complaint id XXXX, in response to my complaint Equifax stated that these accounts were verified and that it has completed its investigation, including contacting the furnisher of the information where applicable but how is that possible if a proper investigation did not take place. According to Section 1681a of the Fair Credit Reporting Act defines an investigative consumer report as a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information SHALL NOT include specific factual information on a consumer 's credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 
Equifax DID NOT fact interview with my neighbors, friends, family, or associates who may have such knowledge concerning any such information. Equifax stated that they verified the information directly from the creditors, but the laws say such information SHALL NOT include specific factual information on a consumer credit report obtained directly from the creditor. 

The Congress makes the following findings, there is a need to ensure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy.

According to 15 U.S.C section 604 A section 2 : states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instruction. This is a violation of my privacy according to section 602 A of this title.

These accounts should not be furnished on my consumer report as they are a violation under 15 U.S.C 1681b, I never gave any reporting any consumer reporting agency WRIITEN COSENT to report anything on my consumer report which violates my right as a federal protected consumer.

15 U.S.C 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A personal SHALL NOT furnish any information relating to a consumer or to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

Due to the improper investigation that took place serval times, as a consumer I am demanding you block and delete these accounts from my consumer report.

Company: RS Clark and Associates, Inc.

Issue: Took or threatened to take negative or legal action
Sub-issue: Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged

Complaint:
After sending the FTC report of identity theft in XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX, RS Clark and Associates are refusing to remove the collection for XXXX XXXX. They then threatened to extort me. This is a racketeering activity and conspiracy to commit racketeering activity carries a sentence of imprisonment of XXXX to life. Telling me that I must pay this amount or we will violate your right to privacy by reporting late payments to the credit reporting agencies without your written permission to ruin your financial reputation which equals extortion. They made false allegations that they sent me a letter to my address which they do not have and it was delivered. It most certainly was not certified because I never received such a letter. I sent them my identity theft affidavit. They have been harassing me and have extorted me by adding negative information to my credit report in an attempt to collect an alleged debt that they have not proven to be mine. This is the second time someone has sold my social on the internet and I have experienced identity theft but all three credit bureaus have allowed them to add such negative information. This makes XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX an accessory and conspiracy to racketeering.

Complaint:
On XXXX XXXX, I applied for a Navy Federal Checkings and Savings account and was immediately approved. A few days later, my account was flagged due to a XXXX XXXX XXXX report. Since then, I have filed the necessary disputes with XXXX XXXX XXXX and had the fraudulent activities removed. Navy Federal refuses to remove the lock on my account or take the new XXXX XXXX XXXX report seriously. Every time I call, I get told that I have to be transferred to the Security Department and the wait time is " over 3 hours '', that's insane! I've even called first thing in the morning and they still have me on hold for over two hours. I just want to be able to use my account. I think it's unfair that I was a victim of Identity Theft and have to be treated so horribly. I even believe that because of this, I am not approved for any other amazing products that they offer. 
Please have them correct this.

( ii ) promptly notify the furnisher of that information that the information has been modified or deleted from the file of the consumer. This is willful disregard of the FCRA. 
In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act below, the following accounts have violated my rights : 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 602 A. States : I have the right to privacy 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 604 A, Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.
