All XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Equifax, XXXX and XXXX ) are fraudulently reporting illegal in accuracies. Per the FCRA, 16 CFR 313.7, Privacy Act of XXXX, as federally protected consumer, I have opted out of any and all authorization, that I may have granted in written or unwritten, verbal or nonverbal for my accounts negatively and fraudulently continue to be reported. Per 15 U.S.C. 1681, U.S.C. 1681b & 1681e, 15 U.S.C. 6801-6802, and 15 U.S.C. 6803-6805. The attached IRS Forms XXXX which were sent by the companies ( see top of documents ) which should have been processed by the companies using the IRS Forms XXXX XXXX, Form XXXX, and Form XXXX. I would like to also mention the charge-offs are now considered certificates of indebtedness which means they are considered income and can not be reported as debts which they continue to be illegally reported as debts. 

It appears the CRA agencies are allowing the companies to continue to report for XXXX when in fact all accounts were resolved in XXXX. This is inaccurate, illegal reporting. 
REFERENCE 15 USC 1681-1681XXXX The Act ( Title VI of the Consumer Credit Protection Act ) protects information collected by consumer reporting agencies such as credit bureaus, medical information companies and tenant screening services. Information in a consumer report can not be provided to anyone who does not have a purpose specified in the XXXX. Companies that provide information to consumer reporting agencies also have specific legal obligations, including the duty to investigate disputed information. In addition, users of the information for credit, insurance, or employment purposes must notify the consumer when an adverse action is taken on the basis of such reports. The XXXX and Accurate Credit Transactions Act added many provisions to this XXXX primarily relating to record accuracy and identity theft. The XXXX XXXX  transferred to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau most of the rulemaking responsibilities added to this Act by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act and the Credit CARD Act, but the Commission retains all its enforcement authority

I am deeply frustrated by the response from the credit reporting agencies regarding the investigation of these accounts, which they claim came back as verified. However, this assertion baffles me, as my credit report still contains multiple inaccuracies. 

As a conscientious consumer, I have the right to understand the thoroughness of the verification process conducted by your agency, as stipulated under 15 U.S.C 1681i ( 7 ) Method of Verification. I demand a detailed account of every step taken to ensure the 100 % accuracy of these disputed items.

It is unacceptable that despite these purported investigations, my credit report continues to reflect discrepancies. I urge your agency to rectify these errors promptly and provide me with the comprehensive documentation I am entitled to under the law.

I am sure yo u are aware that it is against the law to threaten suit without any intention of doing so. Therefore, be advised that I am extremely serious about filing suit against your company. I have sent numerous letters requesting for you to investigate and remove all inaccurate information that is being reported on my personal credit profile, yet you continue to fail to do so. 

It is my understanding of the law that you MUST honor each and every request to investigate incorrect information and you seem to have ignored all of my previous requests. That is a crystal clear violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act which provides a cause of action for an individual consumer as well as penalties and liabilities for both consumer reporting agencies and furnishers of information for non-compliance as violation of its provisions.

As I stated before, this is my final request for you to do as you are governed by the FCRA. If this final request does not prompt you to conduct a proper investigation of the account in question, I will be forced to file suit against your company in the county in which I live. That way, you can travel here in order to defend yourselves.

They in fact did not come from a 3rd party. l even called them to verify it was me and they still refused to process my disputes. I wasted money on mailing my disputes out.
