Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Security Credit Services, LLC (TN)

I originally reached out XX/XX/2023 reporting the inaccuracies on my account and providing a FTC identity theft report for the creditor. You stated a drivers license was required to complete the process but you have not shown proof of the drivers license presented at the time. FTC reports nearly XXXX XXXX dollars lost to fraud each year. That number is not fictional. My identity theft report was not taken seriously, and when given the opportunity, the " comments '' section was not updated as " identity theft '', nor was there any acknowledgement of my dispute. Attached are the responses from the original creditor alleging I provided a drivers license, which can be obtained illegally by criminals wishing to steal someone's identity. What's more is the account alleged to be mine isn't even reporting accurately. How can a person pay 94 % of payments on time while simultaneously reporting 0 % payments made ( all payments missed )? This is not ok, this is not legal, and should be fixed ( deleted from my account. ) XXXX reports 94 % of payments made on time whereas XXXX reports 0 % of payments made on time. XXXX 's payment history is void yet reporting as open, the same as the XXXX report which has the 94 % payment history. All of this will be highlighted in the attached .pdf document for easy viewing. I have waited a year and disputed this multiple times with a paper trail being left in my favor. Depending on the outcome of this dispute, please understand that I am intending to sue if my report is once again neglected. 

please see the attached images and files for context.

I sent a request for credit line blocking. They said it would be blocked by yesterday XX/XX/2023, it is still not blocked. Per law they have been provided with the proper documents to suppress such, but fail to do so. They also make it extremely difficult to speak to a human regarding ID theft. I am going through my government XXXX security clearance and this is stopping my background investigation completely.

I've sent over 2 separate letters regarding my consumer report and the errors reported on there that need to be removed. I was recently evicted and misplaced my receipts when I sent out letters but 2 of them have gone unanswered and they just sent me my consumer report saying all the information is verified. Which I know is a quick and easy response to restart the clock in the 30-day timeframe they have to respond. The main inaccuracy that I have an issue with is late payments. Over 15 late payments are being reported on my consumer report, but according to your laws, late payments are excluded from being reported. It specifically states in 15 USC 1681a ( 2 ) ( i ) that " Reports containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report ''. Transactions and late payments or any kind of payment history are excluded, and also experiences. So how I use my card, and my " experiences '' with using said card are supposed to be excluded from your consumer report. If you look at the definition of a consumer report. Nowhere in there does it say anything about payment history, credit utilization, FICO, vantage score, etc. None of these items are mentioned in what defines a consumer report. In any consumer transaction, I am the original creditor, using my SS card which is my first credit card. If you do not agree then please see the definition of credit card for clarification. So therefore I extended my credit to these corporations, being how it was the use of my credit which was extended to them in the first place. Another big issue is the 3 collections reporting on my consumer report. A debt collector is a third party whom I do not have a contract with and who is trying to come after me for evidence of a debt. They do not have any proof of the debt and can not prove that I owe anything to them because they can not produce a contract that has the wet ink signature that I agreed to pay them anything. Debt collectors buy debts, knowing that they are bad debts, and may not ever collect any payment for them. So they can not cry wolf after knowing they bought a pool of bad debt that was a great possibility of not being collected. Each violation of my consumer rights is a minimum of a {$1000.00} fine, and there are many violations on my consumer report. I would like this information removed as it is causing me harm as I mentioned earlier I was evicted not long ago and this inaccurate information is making it difficult to extend any more of my credit.

This complalint is a follow-up to the complaint filed on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. Several hours after that compalint was filed, XXXX from client advocacy at Truist called and said my case had reached the hightest level and gave me the case number XXXX, She also said she would get back to me within seven days, which was yesterday and I have not heard from her at all. This week I received one letter dated XX/XX/XXXX stating they would send a new deferral or workout option that would need to be exucted. The one on XX/XX/XXXX offered options to bring paymetns current such as a refinance or loan modification. It seems one hand does not know what the other is doing at Truist. 

On XX/XX/XXXX I filed the orginal complaint and Truist responded : For your mortgage account XXXX, the trial offer was mailed XX/XX/XXXX. Within the Trial Flex Modification agreement, the new approved terms are 121 months with new interest rate of 2.875 % and the new unpaid principal balance of {$79000.00}. The workout plan begins with your first payment due on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount {$970.00}. 

I have received that document and we signed and noterized it and sent it back. They failed to record it, and have ingnored the finalized exucted document that should end this matter. Plese note I have been paying {$97000.00} to Truist since XX/XX/XXXX, They say the money is in a suspense account. I was less the 15 months in forebearence.
