XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, NC XXXX Experian XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX RE : REMOVE UNAUTHORIZED INQUIRIES Dear Experian, After recently reviewing my credit report, I noticed unauthorized credit inquires that were not disclosed to myself while I was recently auto shopping. I gave permission for XXXX XXXX XXXX to prepare my vehicle purchase application and pull my credit report for nancing but I DID NOT provide consent to sharing my credit report or consumer report information with various nancial institutions. This type of action is considered unethical and violation of my consumer rights being as though I had no communication nor did I provide authorization allowing these additional nancial institutions access to my consumer report. Under law ; 15 U.S. Code 1681b - Permissible purposes of consumer reports ( a ) In general Subject to subsection ( c ), any consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report under the following circumstances and no other : ( 2 ) In accordance with the written instructions of the consumer to whom it relates. 

I did NOT authorize the following inquiry listed below. This inquiry was not obtained with my consent and appear to be a violation of my FCRA rights under law 15 U.S. Code 1681b-Permissible purposes of consumer reports. 


Below are the results of inaccurate reporting of my information. Please delete immediately.
