Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MN)

To Whom It May Concern, This letter is an immediate, formal demand for rectification of the blatant violations of federal law evident in your actions. I possess an inaccurate copy of my consumer credit report, which I lawfully obtained under my rights as a consumer, as outlined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Let me be crystal clear : the FCRA demands that all information reported must be 100 % accurate, 100 % verifiable, 100 % complete, and reported only within the strictly permissible reporting periods. Anything less is a violation, and I will not tolerate it. I am demanding that you provide undeniable proof that the information on the reported tradeline is 100 % accurate, complete, verifiable, and timely. Failure to do so will result in immediate legal action. The law is on my side, and I am prepared to enforce my rights through any means necessary.
