On XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX OPM data breach as well as Equifax 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Dear CFPB, I am writing to file a formal complaint against XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax regarding their failure to remove fraudulent accounts from my credit report. I have been a victim of identity fraud, as evidenced by the attached police report. I discovered the fraudulent accounts Early this Year in XX/XX/2023 when I attempted to apply to purchase a home and discovered all these fraudulent accounts. I have made multiple attempts to dispute them with the credit bureaus, but they have failed to remove them. 

I believe that the credit bureaus ' inaction is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), which is designed to ensure fair and accurate reporting of consumer credit information. The FCRA mandates that credit bureaus conduct a reasonable investigation into disputed accounts and remove any information found to be inaccurate or resulting from identity theft. 

Despite my diligent efforts to dispute the fraudulent accounts directly with the credit bureaus, they have not conducted a thorough investigation nor taken appropriate action to remove the inaccurate information. This failure to act has had a significant negative impact on my creditworthiness and financial well-being. 

Attached to this complaint are the following pieces of evidence : A copy of the police report detailing the identity fraud incident. 
A comprehensive list of the fraudulent accounts still appearing on my credit report, including their account names, numbers, and dates of opening. 
Correspondence with the credit bureaus, demonstrating my previous attempts to resolve this matter without success. 
I firmly believe that my consumer rights have been violated due to the credit bureaus ' negligence and non-compliance with the FCRA. I request that the CFPB investigates this matter thoroughly and takes appropriate action against the credit bureaus to rectify the violation of my consumer rights. 

To resolve this issue, I seek the following outcomes : The immediate removal of all fraudulent accounts from my credit report. 
Correction of my credit information to reflect the accurate and untainted status of my creditworthiness. 
Any additional remedies or actions deemed necessary by the CFPB to ensure full compliance with the FCRA and protect consumers ' rights. 

I would appreciate a prompt response from the CFPB regarding the initiation of an investigation into this matter. I trust that you will take appropriate action to address this violation and help resolve my complaint. 

Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act. The List of accounts below has violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality under 15 USC 1681. 

I told the XXXX to reinvestigate these accounts : XXXX XXXX XXXX. However, they stated everything was complete and accurate.

My account with 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 60 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 21 days before the payment due date.

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

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 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 8
