Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account status incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC. (CA)

XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX are violating my federally protected consumer rights. They've included inaccurate information on my consumer reportspecifically, two alleged accounts from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX without valid account numbers, negatively impacting my reputation. These accounts must be removed as they do not adhere to the reporting accuracy required by law ( 15 USC 1681e ( b ) ). 

Additionally, the agencies failed to provide a clear opt-out form as mandated by 12 C.F.R. 1016.7a. Despite my explicit request to opt out and revoke consent, if they persist in furnishing this data, it violates 15 U.S.C 1681b ( a ) 2. 

Moreover, the reported information directly violates 15 U.S.C 1681 a ( d ) ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ) as it pertains to transactions and experiences between me and the reporting entity. This constitutes a direct breach.

The inclusion of adverse information, as outlined in 15 U.S.C 1681c ( a ), particularly line 5, violates the statute, specifically 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ). Clearly, this information should not be posted. 

It's evident that XXXX, Equifax, and XXXX have violated multiple federally protected rights by including this information in my consumer report. According to 15 U.S.C 1681n ( a ) ( 1 ), they are liable for compensation of {$1000.00} per violation, amounting to several XXXX dollars for this breach. 

If these accounts remain on my credit score I will be taking further legal action and protecting my consumer rights.
