Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MI)

The Credit reporting Agencies have been neglecting their duty to correct a consumer 's Credit File despite the multiple attempts to correct my Credit File via numerous Dispute letters and countless CFPB Complaints that I have been submitting to the Credit Bureaus. It has been brought to my attention that you are not blocking files when theyre sent with an FTC fraud report. Since it is a requirement by law 605b of the FCRA Im sending this letter certified mail to help establish a legal recourse. My information has been exposed in the Equifax data breach. Under the Fair Credit reporting Act section 605b, the Credit Reporting Agencies are required to remove the disputed accounts and information completely from my Credit File. The following accounts, inquiries, inaccurate names and addresses are not affiliated with me nor received any money, goods, or services as a result of identity theft or they authorized by me and I would like them to remove from any affiliation with me immediately. Please remove the following accounts as they are fraudulent & were opened without my consent or knowledge : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Also, the Credit Bureaus have been claiming that the disputed accounts are verified and yet, they have not sent me copies of documents bearing my signature or proof of ownership to support the Credit Bureaus claims. This action by the Credit Bureaus is a clear violation of the consumer 's rights under the FCRA.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: ENOVA INTERNATIONAL, INC. (RI)

I was shocked when I reviewed my credit report this week and I found multiple inaccuracies on my credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus from a collection company that I never have dealt with before. I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations. In a good faith effort to resolve the matter amicably, I must demand proof of this debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must correct any erroneous reports of this past debt as mine. I am writing to request that you please provide the following information : 1. Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) and 15 USC 1692 ( f ) in this alleged matter. 2. What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3. What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity.

You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to.

ayPal incorrectly closed my personal and business accounts, as well as my wife 's. I am concerned that the closure was both based on false facts and discriminatory banking practices, and perhaps violated my legal rights. No information on the cause of the closure was provided. PayPal is holding my funds hostage for what they described as " up to 180 days '', with no explanation of how this timeline is to unfold. I have offered to provide evidence of all transactions. I have requested a forum to prove the activity as my own, and I explained that I have all accounting records to support the activity. I followed all limits set forth by PayPal in my load and withdrawal activity. I have had no history of negative transactions, charge backs, risky behavior, etc. To date, I have made numerous attempts from within the Paypal account in question to obtain information on how to withdraw any
remaining balances with no success. I have also called numerous times with no success. Per Paypal 's initial email on the above noted date, after the " 180 day hold period '', I would be provided with a follow up and instructions on how to remove my balance. They have failed to do uphold this portion of their own user agreement.
