Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL
Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports
Sub-product: Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem
Sub-issue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Complaint:
On XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX ; I filed disputes due to me being a victim of human trafficking and identity theft with Equifax and they are refusing to take my proof of being a victim of human trafficking. This is shocking because from the dates of XX/XX/XXXX until XX/XX/XXXX the documentation that I had to submit every time I filed a dispute was considered valid and proved I was victim and now all of sudden Equifax is saying that my documentation proves nothing. They are simply refusing to remove any adverse action that resulted because of me being a victim of both crimes. I have attached proof that they accepted the documentation last on XX/XX/XXXX and I have attached where they are now saying those documents aren't good enough. Which it is absolutely insane that I have to submit human trafficking documentation every time I file a dispute instead of like with XXXX and XXXX, this information is already on file and they already are able to see I'm victim by pulling up my information. It's sickening that this company is now putting me through this and refusing to remove items my attackers used my information to get.

Complaint:
3rd request from Company : Request for Debt Verification Regarding Recent Collection Notice I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter concerning a recent notice I received regarding a debt collection, which, according to the information provided, has been sold to your agency.

Firstly, I want to express my concern as I have no prior knowledge of the debt in question, and to the best of my recollection, I have not entered into any agreement or arrangement with your agency regarding this alleged debt. Given this circumstance, I believe it is within my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) to request verification of the debt in question.

As per the FDCPA, specifically outlined in Section 809 ( b ), I have the right to request validation of the debt. This section states : " Within XXXX days after the initial communication with a consumer in connection with the collection of any debt, a debt collector shall, unless the following information is contained in the initial communication or the consumer has paid the debt, send the consumer a written notice containing ( 1 ) the amount of the debt ; ( 2 ) the name of the creditor to whom the debt is owed ; ( 3 ) a statement that unless the consumer, within XXXX days after receipt of the notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid by the debt collector ; and ( 4 ) a statement that if the consumer notifies the debt collector in writing within the thirty-day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, the debt collector will obtain verification of the debt or a copy of a judgment against the consumer and a copy of such verification or judgment will be mailed to the consumer by the debt collector. '' In accordance with this provision, I am formally requesting verification of the debt mentioned in your recent communication. I kindly request that you provide the following information : The amount of the debt.

The name of the original creditor to whom the debt is owed.

Any relevant supporting documentation validating the existence and legitimacy of the debt.

I understand that, as per the FDCPA, upon receipt of this request, you are obligated to cease collection efforts until the necessary verification is provided. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to resolving any discrepancies regarding the alleged debt.
