I told the credit bureaus to investigate every piece of information on the accounts I have listed below. Also I have attached the complaints I sent out and here is the account numbers. 

According the the FRCA The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information.
