Equifax has a mixed report for my name. It includes credit accounts for myself AND my father. I called today and they would not fix over the phone.

It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many information, accounts and items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA, the Credit Reporting Agencies are required by law to remove & block any accounts and information which is found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for the Credit Burueaus and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please remove these files as they were the results of Identit Theft : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX Balance - Date opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Balance {$1000.00} Date opened XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$0.00} Date opened XX/XX/XXXX. If the Credit Bureaus feel there is a possibility these information belong to me I will require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research item I found that requires the Credit Bureaus to verify with 100 % accuracy that each itms is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If the Credit Reporting Agencies do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. So please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly.

Company: Continental Finance Company, LLC (GA)

My Continental Finance credit card was closed, because I could not pay the bill. There was a {$500.00} limit with a {$700.00} high balance. When I was able to pay the bill, the account was sold to a collection agency, XXXX XXXX XXXX. I settled the account for over {$600.00} with XXXX XXXX. This company closed, and did not report my account as settled. I called Continental Finance to inquire why they haven't updated my account as paid to the credit bureau. They said that they do not handle my account. XXXX XXXX XXXX handles my account, and gave me the number. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX, and they verified that the account was paid off, and provided me a letter to give to the credit bureaus. XXXX reported my account as written off after my dispute. I disputed it again, because it was paid off. They said that Continental Finance MTOB is reporting it as closed after the dispute, they sent them the documentation from XXXX XXXX XXXX. My problem is that I paid the account, and it is still hurting my credit with a balance showing that it was never paid. If I dispute it, the credit bureau should show the company proof that it was paid, and annotate my account accordingly. They should not tell me there is nothing we can do about it when I paid over {$600.00}.

Product: Debt collection — Other debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt is not yours
Company: ONLINE Information Services, Inc. (FL)

To Whom It Concerns : I have previously sent you a request to validate an alleged debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and all I received were dates of electric service spanning from XXXX to XXXX, along with the alleged charges you claim I owe you. This does not meet the Federal Trade Commissions guidelines of what constitutes proper debt validation. This inaccurate document contains no accounting of any payments made nor missed, nor the dates on which those payments were made or missed. There isnt even any documentation with my signature on it that proves this is even my account at all. This information could have easily been drawn up and sent by anyone. Your verification document in no way provides sufficient verification of this alleged debt. There isnt any legitimate, verifiable proof that I owe anything to your Company and I don't. 

This collection on my credit reports are causing me severe problems in trying to purchase a home and the damages could lead into the $ 1000s. You should also be aware that reporting such invalidated information to major credit bureaus might constitute defamation of character, as the negative marks on my credit report harm my credit and prevent me from enjoying all the benefits of good credit. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) does not allow the inaccurate reporting of information on my credit report. Therefore, if you do not immediately remove this account from all Credit Bureaus, you are subject to another {$1000.00} FCRA violation fine, plus punitive damages. I'm sure your legal staff will agree that non-compliance with this request could put your company in serious legal trouble with the FTC and other state or federal agencies. 

I intend to follow through with the suit if these unverified charges are not deleted from my credit reports within 15 days. 

Sincerely,
