Product: Student loan — Federal student loan servicing
Issue: Dealing with your lender or servicer — Trouble with how payments are being handled
Company: Maximus Federal Services, Inc. (MI)

My student loan was originally held by NAVIENT which was corrupt and misapplied my payments so that even though I payed {$12000.00} of a {$16000.00} loan, none of the individual loans were ever paid off. 
Navient has subsequently been disolved for fraud and my loan sold to another provider. The new provider wants the entire balance. I did not recieve any relief from the Navient lawsuit. 
After this I reached out to the Department of Education for debt forgiveness, and they connected me with another group. I made scheduled payments to Dept of Education in the amount of {$2000.00} and was told my student debt was forgiven. 
Now I am once again recieving emails from Dept. of Education looking for more money. 
I have all details of the aforementioned and would like to find legitimate relief. 

Thank You, XXXX

I am writing to inform you that I have recently been a victim of identity theft. This unfortunate event has led to unauthorized and fraudulent activities on my credit report. I am deeply concerned about the security and accuracy of my personal information under your stewardship.

In addition, I believe there may have been violations of the following United States Code ( USC ) sections : 1. **42 USC 408** : This statute makes it a felony to misuse Social Security numbers . If my Social Security number was used improperly or without proper authorization, it could potentially indicate a violation of this statute. 

2. **15 USC 1602** : Part of the Truth in Lending Act, this statute provides definitions for various terms related to consumer credit. If there was any misrepresentation of credit terms or failure to provide necessary disclosures, it could suggest a violation of this statute.

3. **USC 3-104** : This code defines what constitutes a negotiable instrument. It's unclear how this would apply unless there's an issue with a specific financial instrument involved in the identity theft.

I kindly request that you investigate these matters promptly and take necessary actions to correct any inaccuracies in my credit report due to the identity theft. I also urge you to enhance your security measures to prevent such incidents in the future. 

Thank you for your immediate attention to this serious matter. 

Best regards, [ Your Name ]
