For instance I 've attached a letter from XXXX which was a account that was opened when I was XXXX years old.I sent letters for years asking them to investigate and remove account explaining to them I was only XXXX years old when accounts was openeded which made it impossible for me to have .They sent back letters saying verified for years and did n't remove it until I contacted you last month now the accounts are gone .Under the fair credit act these bureaus must provide Validation if asked I 've told them these inquiries was fraudulent and I 've asked them to send me a copy of what information they used to verify these inquiries was accurate and if they could n't verify and validate the inquiries listed with company they must be removed within 30.I sent two more certified letters and received no response. .All 3 bureaus refused to send me anything in return other than verified on credit report.This is a Violation .unverified accounts listed below that remain on my credit report in violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681.
