See attached. I am writing to dispute certain inconsistencies and potential Metro 2 violations regarding an account listed on my credit report. 

After recently submitting my 3rd dispute to your agency I see that these following accounts have come back verified when theres nowhere on my consumer report that states when the account was verfied. As a consumer it is my right to know what methods of validation was used to verify these accounts are in fact because these accounts are very much giving fraud and are not mine! If you can not provide the MOV to the below questions I must immediately demand the permanent removal of this/these items from my consumer report!. Your company is in clear violation of several consumer laws put in place to protect consumers like myself from willful disregard of basic consumer rights. *Under 15 U.S. Code 1681b Permissible purposes of consumer reports I never gave you any written consent to report anything on my consumer reports no consent is fraud. *Under 15 U.S. Code 1692j - XXXX certain deceptive forms I am not participating in the collection of this alleged debt. Cease and desist asap *Under 15 U.S. Code 1602 ( p ) - unauthorized use of my information As defined by the IRS Even if you didn't receive a tax form 1099-c you must report cancelled debt and gross income The IRS clearly states charge off as income the reporting of this account is inaccurate. I have done my own investigation and have researched numerus legal cases in which other consumers were victims of the same things that I am now experiencing, and the courts have ruled each an every time that the credit reporting agency could not merely parrot information from the creditors and/or collection agencies. you are required to conduct your own independent reasonable investigations to ensure the validity of the debt and the honesty, and integrity of the creditor and/or collection agency in question. Sending out generic form through the e-Oscar system that does not even contain my reasons for the dispute is not reasonable. Also according to 15 USC 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate on my consumer report.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (WA)

On XX/XX/XXXX, I discovered that a collection account was posted by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) to my Equifax consumer credit report ( Enclosure 9 ). The report indicated that the amount owed was {$140.00}, and that the original creditor is XXXX. To date, I have yet to receive a letter from XXXX regarding this collection account. However, based on the information ( amount and original creditor ) provided by XXXX to Equifax and XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX, this debt is not mine. The amount and original creditor are the same as those submitted by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) to the three credit bureaus in XXXX. Together, the XXXX credit reports indicated that the last payment made to the XXXX account was XX/XX/XXXX ; that the date of first delinquency was XX/XX/XXXX ; that there was an account review inquiry to Equifax by XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ; and that the collection account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX ( see attached supporting documentation ). While I previously had an account with XXXX, that account was closed in XXXX of XXXX. That account was also in good standing at the time of closure. All fees had been paid as the account was set on credit card autopay, including a close-out payment of {$18.00} on XX/XX/XXXX, and all equipment returned ( see attached supporting documentation ). Since closing my XXXX account in XXXX, I have not opened another account with XXXX, and am not the person who made the XX/XX/XXXX payment to the XXXX account in collection. On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a dispute regarding the collection account referenced above to Equifax via certified mail ( see attached supporting documentation ). I also filed a complaint with CFPB on XX/XX/XXXX ( Complaint ID XXXX ), which ultimately resulted in removal of that collection account. 

As a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  in Oregon, this matter is distracting my attention and time from serving Oregonians. I would, therefore, greatly appreciate the CFPBs assistance in resolving this matter expeditiously.

No other information was provided.
