I want to stress that I did not give written permission for these specific transactions to be included in my consumer report. At no point did I authorize these entries, and their presence on my report is unwarranted. Consequently, I am formally requesting that these accounts be blocked and removed from my report immediately. 

It is important to clarify that this request is not due to any error or negligence on my part. There has been no oversight or misunderstanding on my end. Instead, this issue arises solely from the fact that I did not explicitly authorize the inclusion of these transactions in my report. I am diligent about maintaining the accuracy and privacy of my financial records, and these unauthorized entries compromise that integrity. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency and seriousness it deserves. Please confirm the removal of these transactions from my report as soon as possible. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.

I reached out to the credit bureaus on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX regarding some accounts that don't belong to me. I find it incredibly concerning that I have had to reach out twice and they are just ignoring me. I filed an identity theft report and provided all of my information. I have been reading that the bureaus are supposed to remove these accounts immediately upon receiving this information. What they are doing is unfair and in violation of the FCRA.

Company: Early Warning Services, LLC (VA)

I was involved in an imposter scam where money was sent through Zelle. A scammer spoofed the phone number from our local police department and claimed my lost cat was involved in a vehicle accident and taken to the local shelter. The scammer then connected me to another scammer that spoofed the phone number of the local shelter claiming the XXXX  needed immediate XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and it required the payment of {$1500.00} through zelle. I paid the money through zelle. I traveled to the shelter the next day to check up on the cat and the XXXX. The shelter had no records of the cat or a XXXX. I called the police department and they also had no records of a XXXX XXXX XXXXnvolving my cat. The entire situation was made up by the scammer to get my money. Both my bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and Zelle have not made any reasonable attempt to reverse this transfer or give reimbursement. I believe both the bank and Zelle are responsible for not implementing appropriate measures to recall money, freeze accounts, delay withdrawals of transferred funds, and prevent scammers from utilizing Zelle. I also believe the intent of zelle is not to make transfers convenient for consumers. It is a tool for banks to avoid the liability of reimbursing imposter scams and fraud. The zelle XXXX says you should only send money to people you trust. How can the community be expected to question calls from our own local police departments ( from the actual spoofed phone numbers of the police departments )? The police are supposed to be trusted entities. Both XXXX XXXX and Zelle are failing to protect victims of imposter scams and only have created a haven for scam crimes through this money transfer application.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

My accounts 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 to be removed/updated.

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.

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!

On XX/XX/year> at XXXXXXXX XXXX I spoke with a customer representative with Trans Union LLC. I called them into in regards to some inaccurate addresses that is still being reported on my credit report after I disputed fraudulent accounts and had those accounts deleted, but the addresses that were used to initiate those fraudulent accounts are still on my credit report. I spoke with the Trans Union representative and they told me I didnt qualify or pass the clearance to have my address updated. I dont understand as to why my address hasnt been updated when I have been receiving mail from Trans Union about my credit report at the address Im living right now. These addresses shouldve been deleted along with the fraudulent accounts that they were tied to recently. I would like for these addresses to be deleted because Ive never lived at these places and I do not recognize these addresses and they are tied to fraudulent activities. The addresses I am referring to or in the attached files thank you.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc. (CA)

I am writing to request your assistance in resolving an ongoing issue regarding inaccurate credit reporting by Experian. Despite submitting multiple disputes and providing supporting documentation, Experian continues to report incorrect payment history on my Student Loans with Department of Education. 

The payment history inaccurately reflects a 90-day delinquency for XX/XX/year>, even though the account was in deferment at the time. Additionally, the account was reported as current for both XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year>. Despite these clear inconsistencies, Experian has advised me to contact the creditor directly, rather than taking responsibility for investigating and correcting the error. 

Further complicating this situation, my loans are currently in administrative forbearance due to the ongoing federal investigation into the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for unfair business practices. Given this forbearance, no payments should be reported as delinquent. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), it is Experian 's responsibility to ensure that the information they report is accurate. It is not sufficient for them to defer the matter to the creditor without properly investigating the facts. 

I have attached documentation that includes the deferment notice, information on the forbearance, and relevant correspondence with Experian and the creditor. I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter and require Experian to : Remove the inaccurate 90-day delinquency for XX/XX/year> and update the payment history to reflect the correct forbearance and deferment status. 

Ensure all information reported across major credit bureaus is corrected and that any negative impact on my credit score is removed. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your assistance in ensuring that my credit report is corrected and that Experian fulfills its obligations under the FCRA. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

I sent a letter regarding the errors and unfamiliar entries on my credit report, but sadly, I haven't heard back in over 30 days. It seems like my concerns are being overlooked, and I feel taken advantage of. As per Section 611 ( a ), if these issues aren't investigated within 30 days, they should be removed from my credit report without delay. I might need to pursue legal action because of the stress this situation has put me under.
