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. 

I have taken the necessary steps to report this breach of the FCRA to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Attorney Generals Office, the XXXX XXXX XXXX, and the Federal Trade Commission. This escalation is aimed at ensuring comprehensive resolution and to prevent further misuse of my personal information. It is my hope that by involving these regulatory bodies, we can facilitate adherence to legal standards and protect the rights of consumers like myself.
