Product: Credit reporting, credit repair services, or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem — Was not notified of investigation status or results
Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (AR)

I have several accounts that, I sent in dispute for, and the 3 credit reporting agencies are avoiding me and my letters, its been over 90 days, any they haven't responded to any or my letters about those negative accounts on my credit reports. 

I cant handle this situation anymore, could you please make them respond to the disputes and remove those items that they failed to challenge within 30 days, they also are not notating the accounts are being disputed in the comments section of each account. 

I declare under penalty of perjury ( under the laws of the United States, if executed outside of the United States ) that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. Further, I certify that I am permitted by FEDERAL and STATE LAW to file this dispute. I also understand that knowing and willful misstatements or omissions of material facts constitutes a FEDERAL CRIMINAL VIOLATION punishable under 18 U.S.C. 1001. Additionally, these misstatements are punishable as perjury under 18 U.S.C. 1621. This item found within my credit report is not related to any transaction that I made. I am alleging that a person or company- without my authorization- used my personal identifying information to apply for goods, services, or money ; and was successful in creating this account. This debt collector is in violation for putting this unknown account on my credit report. This has caused me to suffer and its defamation of my character.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

The status of these accounts reporting is an inaccurate account, from dates when the account was open, reported dates, dates of last active, date of last payment, and reporting charged off which is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ).

If your company has filled out a 1099c form and is continuing any kind of collection activity as defined under 31 U.S. Code 3711 ( e ) by performing any of the following conduct ; administrative offset, tax refund offset, referral to private collection contractors, referral to agencies operating a debt collection center, reporting delinquencies to the credit reporting agencies, garnishing wages, pursuing litigation or foreclosure, you are committing tax fraud and should be reported to the IRS for a fraudulent financial gain.

Also, 1099-C must be mailed to consumers. I did not receive anything which is a violation. As defined by the IRS, even if you didnt receive a Form 1099-C, you MUST report Canceled Debt as gross income on your tax return, according to the IRS. For an account to be Charged Off, the debt had to have been Canceled. Canceled Debt must be reported as Gross Income on a tax return. Its illegal to report income to my consumer report.

Companies that mark accounts as charged off take advantage of 1099c forms and deem it a profit loss, meaning they collect from the IRS. It is illegal to collect from the IRS and still attempt to collect from the consumer/individual. The reported balance of these accounts is inaccurate, and the agency is to comply by blocking and deleting these accounts from my reports as they do not, and never have had my written consent to report these listings ( Violation of 15 USC 1681b ).

Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P. (LA)

As a federally protected consumer, I am highly disappointed and unsatisfied with Resurgent Capital Services. My name is XXXX XXXX and I am making this complaint against Resurgent Capital Services for committing identity theft. I have no recollection of authorizing or giving Resurgent Capital Services any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am fully aware that, in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are equally liable for violations pursuant to 15 USC 1692e ( 12 ). It seems as though this account has been turned over to innocent purchasers for value, when that is a very false and misleading representation. I have not validated any alleged debt with Resurgent Capital Services. As of XXXX XXXX, 2022, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving Resurgent Capital Services any right to collect on this alleged debt. I have also never received any documentation requesting validation from Resurgent Capital Services before they decided to commit multiple federal violations under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Attached you will also find correspondence from XXXX XXXX XXXX, whom you chose to buy this alleged debt from, notifying me that I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCOUNT BECAUSE IT WAS A RESULT OF IDENTITY THEFT. SEE EXHIBIT A. If Resurgent Capital Services can not provide me with proof, such as a tracking number, that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, this has been a fraudulently and unauthorized account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 USC 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, all collection activity and communication expect through mail to above address, of this and any alleged debts until Resurgent Capital Services can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. This includes the furnishing of any information to any credit reporting agencies. If Resurgent Capital Services continues its collection efforts, I will file for arbitration and Resurgent Capital Services will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.
