Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (MD)

After looking at my consumer report, It appears to me that I am a victim of identity theft. There are collections, closed accounts, charge-offs, OUT DATED INFORMATION and inquiries that are fraudulently being reported. These accounts are indeed fraudulent, containing inaccurate information and multiple discrepancies that are being reported on my consumer report. In pursuant to 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A section 2 : it states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. Pursuant to this none of the consumer reporting agencies asked nor were they ever given my permission to furnish this information. I state I DID NOT give written consent to any of the consumer reporting agencies to furnish any of this information. The consumer reporting agencies have assumed this vital role, and infringed my rights both personally and as a consumer.
