, XXXX XXXX, declare under penalty of perjury that the information provided in this statement is
accurate and true to the best of my knowledge. I am the victim of identity theft, which has affected
multiple accounts listed under my name.I previously notified the respective creditors and financial
institutions of my change of address due to an incident of mail theft. Despite this notification, these
entities failed to update my records accordingly. This has resulted in unauthorized and fraudulent
activities on the mentioned accounts, reflecting a serious case of identity theft.The continued
reporting of these accounts with incorrect and unauthorized information has led to adverse effects
on my credit report, significantly impacting my financial standing and reputation. decisions were
made and actions were taken under my name without my knowledge or consent.I have never
authorized or consented to delinquent payments OR collections OR charge-offs.Identity Theft and
Assumption Deterrence Act, enforced by the U.S. Department of Justice. These laws are designed to
protect individuals from unauthorized use of their personal information and to ensure accurate and
fair reporting of credit information.According to the U.S. Department of Justice, identity theft involves
the unauthorized use or misuse of another individual's personal information for fraudulent purposes.
In my case, the failure to update my personal information, specifically my address, despite being duly
notified, has led to circumstances that parallel identity theft. The misdirected communications and
unauthorized actions on MENTIONED accounts, due to the address not being updated, have
resulted in my personal information being used in a manner that I did not authorize. This negligence
has facilitated financial decisions and activities under my name without my consent, closely mirroring
the essence of identity theft The mishandling of my personal information and the subsequent
adverse effects on my accounts and credit report constitute a violation of my rights under various
laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and the Identity Theft and Assumption
Deterrence Act, enforced by the U.S. Department of Justice and more. These laws are designed to
protect individuals from unauthorized use of their personal information and to ensure accurate and
fair reporting of credit information.Identity Theft Definition from Justice.gov: "Identity theft and
identity fraud... involve someone wrongfully obtaining and using another person's personal data in a
way that involves fraud or deception, typically for economic gain." The wrongful use of my personal
information and the resulting financial harm align with this definition, exacerbating the seriousness of
your actions. 1. Critical Error in Address Reporting and Its Direct Impact: The presence of multiple
incorrect addresses on my credit report, despite my provision of updated and accurate information,
has led to grave misverification of accounts. This situation extends beyond clerical error, reflecting a
severe breach of accurate reporting. Such inaccuracies have unjustly impacted my credit history and
financial standing. 2. Demand for Substantial Verification Evidence: Under the Fair Credit Reporting
Act, I demand more than just a copy of my credit report as proof of verification. There is a legal
obligation for EXPERIAN to provide substantial, tangible evidence validating the addresses and
associated account information reported. Failure to provide this level of verification represents a
significant breach of your duties. 3. Importance of IRS Form 1099-C in Debt Verification: For chargedoff debts, it is imperative that the original creditor files Form 1099-C with the IRS, particularly when
the debt is sold. This documentation is crucial for accurate credit reporting and must be part of your
verification process. I insist on a thorough verification of debt statuses using such essential
documentation. 4. Detailed Explanation of Legal Violations byEXPERIAN Tailored to my Situation:
