I just looked at my consumer reports and noticed a late payment on an account that I was never late for.

I have never been late on payments for the account : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. Please investigate and provide proof with statements showing that this payment was late and proof that I authorized the reporting of this information. If proof can not be provided I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late.

My name is XXXX XXXX, and my personal information has been compromised and misused by a XXXX dealership to secure an unauthorized loan for a XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. The fraudulent actions include signing my name on a contract without my consent, resulting in a loan with triple the interest rate compared to what was initially agreed upon. 

Here are the specific details of the fraudulent activity : XXXX. Unauthorized Contract : I did not sign the loan contract for the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The dealership forged my signature and submitted it without my knowledge or consent, which is a violation of the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), 15 U.S.C. 1601, et seq.

2. Inflated Interest Rate : The fraudulent contract includes an interest rate that is triple the rate I had agreed to initially. This inflated rate was not disclosed to me and was never authorized by me, violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681, et seq. 
XXXX. Dealership Misconduct : The XXXX dealership in question pushed through this unauthorized contract despite my clear instructions and without my involvement. This constitutes a blatant act of identity theft, as defined by the Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act, 18 U.S.C. 1028.

Enclosed with this letter, you will find : A copy of my identity theft report filed with the local police department. 
Documentation of the unauthorized loan contract and the original contract terms that I had agreed to. 
My personal identification documents for verification. 

I kindly request that the credit bureau takes the following actions : 1. Immediate Removal : Remove the fraudulent loan entry related to the XXXX XXXX XXXX from my credit report, as required by the FCRA. 
XXXX. Investigation : Conduct a thorough investigation into this matter to ensure that no other fraudulent activities are impacting my credit report, in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681i.

3. Notification : Notify me promptly of the actions taken to correct my credit report and provide confirmation of the removal of the fraudulent entry, as mandated by the FCRA.

This fraudulent activity has significantly affected my credit score and financial standing, and I am seeking your prompt attention to rectify this issue. I trust that you will treat this matter with the urgency it deserves and take the necessary steps to restore the accuracy of my credit report.

Thank you for your cooperation and assistance in resolving this matter. Please contact me if you require any additional information or documentation.

I am listing accounts below that have been reported inaccurately on my credit report. In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit.

I demand to see Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) of the accounts listed below. Your failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit.

I recently initiated the process of purchasing a house, and during the mortgage application, I discovered several inquiries on my credit report that were not made by me. Additionally, there are negative items, collections, and late payments reported that are inaccurate and have resulted in significant damage to my credit report. 

However, after conducting thorough inquiries with the respective companies in the credit reports, it has been confirmed that they do not have any records of me in their systems, and still, the credit bureaus refuse to do a proper investigation to correct my credit reports. 

I would like to draw your attention to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which leads me to acknowledge that these creditors have violated my rights under 15 USC 1681, Section 602, which states I have the right to privacy, and 15 USC 1681, Section 604a, Section 2, which also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) prohibits the reporting of inaccurate information and ensures the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of information in consumer reports. The inclusion of unauthorized inquiries and inaccurate negative information on my credit report is not only a violation of my rights under the FCRA but also constitutes defamation of my character.

My account with XXXX XXXX XXXX  was never late! I have had exceptional payment history witH XXXX  XXXX and all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment. 


This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family! 


I demand the late payment reported in XXXX  days to be removed. 


They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law! 


15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than XXXX  days before the payment due date. 


XXXX XXXX  Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ). 


I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered XXXX  days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided. 


This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer! 


Delete the late payments from my consumer reports XXXX
