Complaint sub-issue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

On XXXX XXXX, two men selling XXXX XXXX XXXX  knocked on my door at around XXXX. I answered the door and they proceeded to tell me about the product they were selling. Something they said piqued my interest so they offered to give me a quote. They said they do n't know why, but their system requires a name and address to generate a quote for somebody. The provided my wife with the quote verbally at which point my wife said she was not interested and they left. 
The next day I received a call from XXXX, our credit monitoring service, who said I had a HARD credit inquiry on my account and did she recognize it. I said no and after looking into it, we determined that the hard credit inquiry was from XXXX XXXX XXXX and actually occurred on XXXX XXXX, the day before I even spoke to XXXX. Of course my husband and I were outraged as we had not and would n't even think about giving XXXX permission to do a hard or even soft credit inquiry. And the only info I had given them ( which they already knew ) was my name and address. 
I have reached out to both Equifax and the company to no avail. Neither has been helpful in any way in resolving this and getting this unauthorized hard credit inquiry removed from my credit record. We would appreciate any help the CFPB could provide in resolving this as we feel it is outrageous that a company could do this. 

Thank you,

The bureaus have NOT provided me a copy of ANY original documentation ( a consumer contract with my signature on it ) as required under Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) & Section 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ). Furthermore, they have failed to provide the method of verification as required under Section 611 ( a ) ( 7 ). I have advised them that under Section 611 ( 5 ) ( A ) of the FCRA They are required to promptly DELETE all information which can not be verified.
Complaint sub-issue: Debt was result of identity theft

XX/XX/2020 I received an updated credit report from XXXX  where I noticed an account that was in collections for {$250.00}. The account was from IC System Inc for a medical service provided by XXXX XXXX. I disputed the account with XXXX  and they told me that IC System has verified my identity and that I would have to contact them to remove the debt. I contacted them, verified my name and date of birth and address. They did not have my address on file correctly and could not match me to an account. I had to give them the account number that was on the XXXX credit report. They let me know I would have to file a police report and send it via mail. I sent it and waited a week, checked back in and they said they didn't receive it and it was nothing they could do. I waited another week and they said they did not receive it and it was nothing they could do. I talked to a manager who shared with me more details about the account with XXXX XXXX and it was an insurance company I had never had/used and she advised me to contact them. After my plea for help with this issue she ultimately told me that it was nothing she could do and that there was no alternative way to send in the police report to guarantee they got it. I was told to just wait.
Complaint sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

I disputed XXXX tradelines in my credit file & report that does not belong ( XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX ). The company reporting the tradelines had no right to be reporting any information on me to any CRA. As a XXXX issue, the information is also inaccurate and incomplete. I disputed this information with Equifax, XXXX and XXXX. XXXX has recently deleted the XXXX tradelines. Only Equifax & XXXX are still reporting. To date, I disputed the tradelines XXXX separate times directly with each CRA. I also disputed the alleged accounts with the furnisher directly on at least XXXX separate occasions. At no time did the CRAs forward to me any documentation supporting how they veirifed the information & tradelines. I want the items deleted asap because at no time was the company a creditor of mine nor were they working on behalf of a creditor of mine and Equifax & XXXX did not & could not conduct a reasonable investigation under the statute without the proper authenticated documents. Also, how could this information be deleted in my XXXX credit file but be verified in my Equifax & XXXX credit files & reports.
Complaint sub-issue: No notice of investigation status/result

Equifax refuses to provide me proof of how they completed an investigation that I submitted with regards to fraud. I have sent Equifax a certified letter requesting the specifics of how they investigated an account showing on my credit report with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This investigation was improperly done and it was not properly investigated an a fraudulent account. Since this investigation was improperly done I demanded by certified mail with return receipt requested proof of how they completed this identity theft investigation. Equifax is required by the FCRA to do a reasonable investigation with regards to fraud reports. Equifax has violated the FCRA and not done a reasonable fraud investigation. This account was reported as fraud yet Equifax only verified the name and address on the account, and that is not a proper investigation. I was told by a representative at Equifax that they only submitted the information through XXXX. I gave them the name and number of someone at XXXX XXXX XXXX to contact with regards to this account and they refused to contact this person. Equifax has refused to comply with my certified demand requesting that they provide proof of their proper investigation.
