Complaint:
charging me several debts that were and are fraudulent. Was reassured that I would n't have to worry about it because I had sent all documentation proving that I was n't the person that had done this. I have a letter from the state of XXXX signed by a judge that I was clear of all debt that this company harassed me about and put it into collections on my credit files. After a lot of work paying for copies of documents and copies of my drivers license plus many other forms including birth certificate I was declared the real XXXX XXXX XXXX and the person who had done this was a criminal and had committed fraud. After much defense and money spent on giving them what was asked of me to prove it was n't me they told me I had nothing to worry about and that it would be removed from my credit files so it would n't affect my credit scores. Well they lied and it was never token off of my credit scores and shows I owe a XXXX a total of {$800.00}. I have no clue who this man is or who the company is because I have never been to XXXX. Just recently I seen XXXX XXXX XXXX County Circuit Court. XXXX is a collection of {$75.00}, another {$510.00}, another for {$75.00} and a last one for {$140.00}. I spoke to the company which I was told it was a law firm court appointed or something like that and that I needed to pay because he had represented me. I do n't know this place nor this man or his firm company etc. Born and raised in XXXX my entire life except for past 10 years I have lived in XXXX and that 's it. I was lied to because they told me that I had nothing to worry about and that it would be taken off my credit report. After I sent all the info needed to prove I was the real XXXX XXXX and that the person who had committed the fraud was a criminal. I have a letter sent to me by a judge that clears me of everything with instructions to carry it in my vehicle in case I would get pulled over and this came up. I would have the proof that it was not me and I would be free to go, Well it so happens that this firm, company or whatever it is lied to me because it 's on my credit report under collections. In the beginning of all this I could n't even get my drivers license and it took 3 whole months. I could n't get a loan and my credit scores were drastically low because of this. Well here we are once again with the XXXX XXXX XXXX in my credit file collections hindering me from getting any loans. I have suffered a lot with this and this company has lied terribly when I sent all they asked for. Paying for copies of documentations, copies of license, birth certificate etc abd on top of that paying for faxes to to get it to them asap. Till this day they never took off the collections and only say closed but shows I owe him XXXX sets or counts of money when it 's not true. I want them to take it off because it was not me and they are well aware of that, I have suffered emotionally, financially and very depressed with lots of anxiety through all this and here we are with same routine. This time I have doctors that will help testify on how this 's taking a tow on me because I already suffer from XXXX XXXX XXXX and this is making worst. I have the letter from judge that was sent from XXXX. Because of all the collections from this one company making it almost impossible to get a loan of any when it 's wrong and unjust because I owe this company nothing.
