My credit and identity monitoring service notified me that a credit report had been requested on me with XXXX. Since I hadnt applied for a loan, gotten a credit card or anything related, I pursued this issue. 

Ostensibly the company that made the request for my credit report was : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX XXXX The phone number is a XXXX area number and when I XXXX  it, the number appears to belong to an individual in a southern suburb of XXXX. 

I contacted Elan Financial, was transferred to their fraud department, but was told they couldnt help me as they only dealt with credit card fraud on cards held by their customers. I asked if there was someone else I could talk to and they said no. 

Ive since had security freezes put on all three credit reporting agencies but XXXX said they wont remove the inquiry until I file a report, which is why Im filing this.

I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX data breach.

After reviewing my consumer report I've noticed that there are information and accounts that's unlawfully reporting. I reached out to the creditors to verify this alleged debt in which I asked them to provide me the proper documentation that shows this debt belongs to me. They have yet to respond with any documentation proving that this debt is mine. I receive numerous phone calls throughout the day from the creditors seeking payment in which i'm aware that this violates 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communication in connection with debt collection. Included in this complaint is a copy of my dispute letter in which I ask Experian to investigate and remove anything that's reporting inaccurate or unverified. By them reporting this inaccurate information I am being negatively affected and my ability to obtain funding or the proper necessities in life are limited due to bad credit. I am aware that in order for any account to report on my consumer report the creditor must have authorization to share my information in which they never had permission. I have no knowledge of who these creditors are and by them reporting anything to Experian violates my right to privacy. Experian has proven to report inaccurate information on many people 's consumer report. They were never given the proper consent to furnish a consumer report on my behalf.

I have diligently corresponded with your bureau regarding my status as an identity theft victim, yet my concerns remain unresolved. I am once again disputing the damaging fraudulent information on my credit file. Despite submitting the required FTC complaint, your bureau continues to report these fraudulent accounts on my credit report. I have personally contacted the banks associated with these accounts, submitted the necessary documents, and ensured the immediate removal of these accounts from their records.It is puzzling that while other credit bureaus have promptly removed these accounts following the FTC submission, your bureau has not. I am curious to understand the verification process your bureau employed to continue reporting these fraudulent accounts.
