I purchased XXXX drinks with a beach vendor in XXXX. I was charged {$870.00}. I immediately called Bank of America to open a fraud claim. They denied it on XX/XX/XXXX. I called again and opened another claim. They denied it again on XX/XX/XXXX. The bank told me that the vendor had proven that I had approved the purchase, but it was not my signature and I'm sure if they were to actually look at the receipt it would be very obvious that it was a scam. XXXX drinks obviously do not cost {$870.00}. I did not sign for it. I can not file a police report because it was in XXXX and the police are aware of the scam and do not take it seriously. Bank of America has denied my claim XXXX times now and wont give me any reason as to why they have denied it. They have send me XXXX identical denial letters that give me XXXX information or address my rebuttals at all. I would like a copy of the receipt or at least a copy of my signature. If BoA looked at either of those things it would be very obvious it was not me. I also submitted a complaint with the Consumer Protection Agency on XX/XX/03 ( id : XXXX ) and today XXXX, BoA sent me another identical denial letter. I refuse to accept this.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of fraudulent accounts from my credit report. I have recently become aware of unauthorized accounts on my credit report, and I insist on the aggressive deletion of these accounts without any further delay. I was the victim & I'm not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. 

The fraudulent accounts in question are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!!

XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!!

I'm confused about how you've verified it while the other bureaus have removed it. Please delete this from my file. It is inaccurate, erroneous, incomplete, or unverifiable. 
Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report. The presence of these fraudulent accounts is not only damaging my creditworthiness but also causing undue stress and hardship. Therefore, I demand the immediate removal of these items from my credit report. 

I expect the credit bureau to conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and provide me with a prompt response. As the victim of identity theft, I urge you to take aggressive action to rectify this situation at the earliest possible date.
