Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (NC)

Hi! My bank account at Bank of America was closed and I'm not able to open any account at other banks. I was a victim of scammers as a newcomer. I was looking for a job and met the offer of theft. It took me a while to understand that it is not a real job but scam. However, they sent me a check for direct deposit and when I tried to load it it in the system my account was denied and closed. 

I never had such experience with a checks before in other countries, that's why I didn't know exactly how it should work. Could you please help me and change my status in a system so I'll be able to open new bank account in one of the most reliable banks of the USA. 

Let me know if you need any further information from me. 

Thanks in advance, XXXX XXXX XXXX

A year or two ago I reported a delinquency to you by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on my credit report as incorrect and fraudulent. 

After an investigation it was removed. 
Now the exact same bill is back with a new collection agency XXXX XXXX XXXX. 

This bill is from a condo office for damage to carpet that was caused by a leak in the condo. While installing new kitchen cabinets in the unit above me the carpenters, put a screw that went through the wall and into the pipe, causing water to run down, filling my unit below and damaging all my personal property. 
The condo rules say that the unit above me is responsible for the damage to my unit but it was easier for them to bill me as I was renting and moving and keep the people above happy. I have all the emails between the office and I acknowledging this damage, that it was their fault, and that they didnt find it immediately and had to go back several times. 

They kept my security deposit and tried to bill me. I said take me to court as I have all the evidence to win. Knowing they couldnt win they chose this. 

How many times do I have to have the same bill removed. 
When is it harassment to keep posting the same bill after investigation and removal? 

Im inclosing pictures of the water coming down from the upstairs unit through my kitchen cabinets, my soaked, carpet, clothing, and bed I also copies of them charging me for the carpet that their leak caused. 

I have many more emails from XXXX XXXX and complete pictures on the damage and the
