I discovered several inaccuracies on my credit report, which I believe are the result of identity theft. Upon reviewing my credit report, I identified multiple unauthorized accounts that are in violation of Metro 2 compliance guidelines and the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). These accounts have negatively impacted my creditworthiness and financial opportunities. Specifically, the accounts listed on my credit report exhibit the following violations : Incorrect Payment History : Several accounts show a payment history listed as " Unknown, '' which violates Metro 2 guidelines. Missing Account Status and Terms : The status and terms of these accounts are not provided, making it unclear whether the accounts are active, closed, or in dispute. Failure to Provide Clear and Accurate Information : The accounts ' information provided on my credit report is not clear or accurate, violating FCRA guidelines ( FCRA 623 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) ). Despite my efforts to address these discrepancies by disputing them directly with the credit reporting agencies, the unauthorized accounts remain on my credit report. These inaccuracies compromise the accuracy and integrity of my credit profile, causing undue harm to my financial reputation and opportunities. I respectfully request the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau 's assistance in resolving this matter promptly. Your intervention is crucial in ensuring that the credit reporting agencies and associated companies comply with Metro 2 guidelines and the FCRA by deleting these unauthorized accounts from my credit report. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX

I filed for bankruptcy in 2019 but did not list creditors. I changed my mind about filing bankruptcy and 11 days after filing, it was dismissed by the bankruptcy court. I never pursued bankruptcy, never identified any creditors, and never dealt with the trustee. It was dismissed and should have been treated like it was never filed given that no action was taken on it whatsoever. The bankruptcy is being reported to the credit bureaus via XXXX XXXX, not the bankruptcy court itself, which means a third-party with no knowledge or verifiable information is providing it. Also, my full social security number has not been provided so the credit bureaus do not know if the information is accurate or not but are still putting it on my credit report. I never went through with any aspect of the bankruptcy process. Therefore, my credit report should not reflect that I have a bankruptcy on my record. The third party reporting, lack of identity verification are prohibited by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. My rights are being violated by Experian, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX XXXX.
