Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (FL)

On all three credit reports there appears to be a name, XXXX XXXX, associated to me which I have never used. 

A loan company is demanding I sigh a form saying I had obtained credit under that name I never have. They refuse to remove it. 

I will not approve possible ID theft attempted on my name. I have no way of knowing what this is associated with. 

How can I remove this to get my mortgage company to continue my application.
