I was looking through my report and noticed a vehicle that I returned to the dealership where it's reporting completely incorrect. I had the opportunity to talk to several lawmakers and friends, and learned some basic laws in regards to voluntary or repossession of a vehicle. Under the laws of MASS and UCC 9.506 as well as State RISA and MVISA statutes, a deficiency can not be claimed unless all of the required notices were properly and timely given, and all of the allowable redemption and cure time limits were adhered to.

Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Additionally, my information was also affected by the XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion data breach, which raises concerns about the security of my personal data.

I recently conducted a review of my credit report and found several items that have caused me significant distress. These items appear to be unverifiable, inaccurate, and questionable. Your agency has failed to ensure the accuracy of the information as required under 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Accuracy of Reports. This statute mandates that consumer reporting agencies must follow reasonable procedures to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of the information they report.

Furthermore, under 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( 5 ) Treatment of Inaccurate or Unverifiable Information, you are required to promptly delete or modify any information found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or unverifiable during a reinvestigation. If you are unable to provide me with verifiable proof of the accuracy of the disputed items within 15 days of your investigation, these accounts and the related information must be removed from my credit report.

Additionally, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), I do not recognize any of the alleged creditors or debt collectors. I have never entered into a valid contract with any of these entities, nor have I engaged in any transactions with them. As such, these accounts are fraudulent and may be the result of identity theft or other illegal activities. Attempting to enforce these fraudulent accounts is unlawful. I request that you expedite your investigation to prevent further harm, losses, or damages that I may suffer as a victim of identity theft.

Moreover, under the Fair Credit Billing Act, my right to privacy has been violated, and this breach infringes upon my rights as outlined in The Privacy Act of 1974. Removing the inaccurate and fraudulent information from my credit report will help restore my privacy and prevent further violations.

Re : Formal Dispute of Inaccurate Collection on my Credit Report : ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ) Request for Deletion. I am writing to formally dispute an inaccurate collection which is XXXX XXXX XXXX appearing on my credit report. I respectfully request your assistance in investigating and removing this erroneous collection account under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692 et seq. 
The account in question is as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. 
1. Failure to Validate the Debt : According to 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), I requested validation of this debt within thirty days of receiving notice. However, the collection agency has failed to provide sufficient evidence that I owe this debt, such as the original contract or proper documentation proving my liability. Without proper validation, the debt should not be reported on my credit report.

2. Reporting of Inaccurate Information : Under the FCRA, 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), consumers have the right to dispute inaccurate or incomplete information on their credit reports. The collection agency has reported erroneous or unverifiable information, which is damaging to my credit score. I am entitled to have this negative information removed if it can not be verified or proven accurate within thirty days of your investigation. 
3. Potential Statute of Limitations Violation : The alleged debt may be outside the statute of limitations for legal collections under California law. If this is the case, the continued reporting of this debt may be considered misleading, unfair, and a violation of the FDCPA ( 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( 5 ) ), as it could be seen as a threat of legal action that can not be legally pursued. 
Requested Action Pursuant to the FCRA and FDCPA, I kindly request the following : 1. A full investigation into this matter, in line with FCRA guidelines, to verify the legitimacy of this collection account.

2. Deletion of the collection account from my credit report if the debt can not be verified or is found to be inaccurate.

3. Written confirmation of the removal of the collection from my credit report. 
Please provide a response within the time frame required by law. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to your swift resolution.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC. (FL)

I am writing to formally file a complaint against XXXX University for the ongoing inaccurate reporting of late payments on my credit report. Despite my repeated attempts to resolve this matter, including contacting XXXX University and the credit bureaus several times, the issues remain unresolved. 

Here are the details of my situation : Creditor : XXXX University Account Number : [ Your Account Number ] Inaccurate Late Payments Reported : XXXX entries since XX/XX/XXXX In XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX University confirming that I do not owe any balance. However, they continue to report multiple late payments to the credit bureaus, which is causing significant harm to my credit score.

I have disputed these entries with the credit bureaus ( XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion ) on several occasions, but the inaccuracies persist. The continued reporting of these late payments is not only incorrect but also potentially violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Specifically, 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 602 ( a ) states that I have the right to privacy, and 15 U.S.C. 1681, Section 604 ( a ) ( 2 ) specifies that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. 

The actions of XXXX University and the reporting agencies have violated my rights, and I request that the CFPB investigate this matter and help facilitate the correction of my credit report. I believe that I have taken all necessary steps to resolve this issue directly with both XXXX University and the credit bureaus without success. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I look forward to your prompt response and any assistance you can provide in rectifying this situation.
