15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 This section of the code covers the responsibilities of information providers to consumer reporting agencies. It prohibits the reporting of inaccurate information, and requires that information providers correct inaccurate information after being notified by the consumer.

15 U.S.C. 1681i This section of the code covers the procedure for handling disputed accuracy. It requires that agencies provide consumers with a description of the process used to determine the accuracy of information, and that consumers have the right to add a statement to their file disputing the accuracy of the information. 

When a consumer disputes inaccurate information, the credit reporting company must investigate the information, and stop reporting it if it can not be verified. The company must also provide a notice to the consumer, and give them the option to add a statement to their file.

Its unbelievable that neither the credit bureaus nor the companies involved can recognize this as fraudulent. Why would I open three credit accounts and go delinquent on all of them? If these accounts are old, its illegal for any company to change the original open date to a recent year just to reset the seven-year period for negative items to remain on my credit report under Ohio law XXXX That, in itself, is fraud.

My Capital One Credit card is not reporting to XXXX or XXXX. The credit card number ends in XXXX. Ive contacted both credit bureaus as well as Capital One. The account is in good standing. The credit bureaus say that in 2020 Capital One contacted them and told them to delete the account. At the time, I was disputing a late payment with Capital One. Instead of correcting the late payment info, the direction from Capital One was to delete the account, which XXXX and XXXX did. Now, the only way the account can be re-inserted is if Capital One contacts them and have them re-insert it. I have asked them to do so but they said that they are reporting it to the bureaus, which is all they are responsible to do. 

I have been on over a dozen calls with Capital One, XXXX, and XXXX regarding this issue. I hope that you all can help me resolve this. 



Sincerely.

I never had a XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. So, I filed an Identity Theft Affidavit with the Federal Trade Commission as I believe that I was a victim of Identity Theft. I sent a copy of the fraud affidavit to the credit bureaus and the reporting agency asking them to remove this fraudulent account from my credit report and they refused and failed to do so and this is a clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act The law is explained below : The section of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) that addresses the removal of fraudulent information related to identity theft is Section 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), which is titled " Blocking of Information Resulting from Identity Theft. '' This section states that when a consumer provides a credit reporting agency with an identity theft report, the agency must block the reporting of the fraudulent account or information from the consumer 's credit report. Specifically, it requires the credit reporting agencies to remove or block the reporting of information that is the result of identity theft within XXXX business days after receiving : 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer. 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ( such as an affidavit ). 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer. 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not related to any transaction of the consumer. The consumer must submit an identity theft affidavit or report ( often obtained through law enforcement or an affidavit via the FTC ). Upon receiving the documentation, the credit reporting agency is obligated to block the fraudulent information from appearing on the consumers credit report. I have am submitting once again a copy of the fraud affidavit that I had submitted before and I am asking you to delete the account called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX from my credit report immediately.
