In the quiet humdrum of everyday life, a sudden jolt shattered the tranquility : I had become a victim of identity theft. Like a thief in the night, unseen hands had stolen my personal information, plunging me into a bewildering maze of uncertainty. With each fraudulent transaction and unauthorized account, the breach of trust cut deep, leaving me grappling with the unsettling reality of a violated identity. Yet, in the midst of chaos, a glimmer of resilience emerged, a resolve to reclaim what was rightfully mine and restore the harmony stolen by unseen adversaries. These are the following accounts need to be removed :

Company: Coinbase, Inc. ()

For nearly a month, I have been trying to get access to funds held by Coinbase. It has been nothing short of a nightmare. Their treatment of customers is appalling. 

For a start, they do not provide customer service over the phone. Their email customer service is totally unresponsive and/or incompetent. I have been trying to get access to my money for over three weeks, and I am being led around in circles. Their agents either do not read what I am saying or do not care. Most of their emails reiterate solutions that have nothing to do with my case or repeat suggestions that didn't work when tried previously. I am constantly having to repeat myself and I am not convinced an actual human being is even dealing with my case. Eventually, Coinbase told me they could not service my account and would advise me later how to reclaim my funds. However, this still has not happened. What is worse is that when I follow up, they come back to me with irrelevant messages that have nothing to do with my case. It's completely outrageous to deny me my own money. Coinbase is so unresponsive and/or incompetent that I consider it to be a scam company.

Urgent Compliance Notice : Immediate Attention Required for FCRA Violations I am writing to formally address a serious matter concerning the unauthorized disclosure of my credit information. As an individual deeply impacted by my upbringing and surrounding environment, the safeguarding of my personal data is of utmost importance to me. My unique circumstances have instilled in me a strong awareness of privacy and the critical need for consent in sharing sensitive information. 
Under the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically referenced under 15 U.S. Code 1681b - " Permissible purposes of consumer reports, '' it is clear that consumer reporting agencies are obligated to operate within strict boundaries to protect individual privacy. This statute mandates that such agencies may only release consumer reports under certain conditions, chiefly requiring the explicit, written consent of the individual concerned. It has come to my attention that my credit information has been furnished by your agency without my authorization, in direct contravention of section 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ). This section unequivocally requires my written approval prior to the dissemination of my credit report. The absence of my consent in this matter not only violates federal law but also disregards my personal rights to privacy and control over my financial information. 

Given this unauthorized action, I demand the prompt removal of all inaccurately reported information from my consumer report. Should these issues remain unaddressed, I am prepared to seek reparation through legal channels, including but not limited to, initiating a claim for damages in small claims court.

Company: NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC (MD)

Nationstar mortgage company purchased my mortgage from XXXX in XXXX of XXXX. Since I had a conventional loan originally, I qualified to have my PMI removed after 2 years. I submitted the PMI removal request to Nationstar officially on XXXX XXXX, XXXX. They initially tried to tell me that I could not have it removed because of a late payment on the account, which happened only at the time that Nationstar initially transferred the loan over from XXXX, which happened without my knowledge. I made the XXXX payment to XXXX, they never cashed it, and the payment was never sent to Nationstar. I had been in communication with Nationstar all along about this, and even though the " official '' payment was a few days late, they agreed to not charge any late fees because they were aware of the miscommunication between the XXXX mortgage companies and I. Regardless, I waited until the official " wait time '' of 1 year with no delayed payments to check on the status, and after I called them today, they stated that my current Loan to Value ratio is at 90 %. When I asked them how they got to this figure, no one was able to answer that question for me. One person was able to give me the initial appraised value of my home at the time of purchase in XXXX, which placed my LTV ratio at 78 %, but still, no one could answer that 90 % amount, and they stated that if I wanted to remove the PMI, then all I needed to do was pay {$60000.00} toward my loan and then it might be removed. After going through XXXX different departments, I was finally told that I now need to re-submit the PMI removal request, and that they would send me a new form ( which i still have not received ) and start the entire process all over again. At this point, it is clear that they have no intention of removing the PMI from my account.
