On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a request to block items on my consumer report as I am a victim of identity theft. This was not a dispute, however, the FCRA has chosen to forgo Federal regulation and apply their company policy to treat this as a dispute. In fact, when I called them, they stated that their policy supersedes Federal law ( which states ) ( a ) Block A consumer reporting agency should block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date receipt by such agency of- ( 1 ) appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) a copy of an identity theft report, ( 3 ) the identification of such information by the consumer, and ( 4 ) a statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer. I submitted proof that my social security number, fingerprints, birthdate, addresses, and other identifying information were affected by the XXXX XXXX data breach as well as XXXX 's XXXX data breach. I submitted all the required documents per 15usc1681c and yet the CRA has failed to block this information and it has been over 4 days. Again, this is NOT A DISPUTE.

Issue: Opening an account — Account opened as a result of fraud
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (SC)

All of this happened on XX/XX/23. 

Someone was able to fraudulently open an account in my former name. They used my former name, former email address, current phone number, and ( most concerningly ) social security number. Upon first attempt to call BoA, I was unable to get past the automated menu due to not having my account number - ironically enough, the automated recording told me I needed to have my account number in order to speak with a representative " for my security ''. I stopped in the local branch and spoke with a teller who was able to determine the account number using my social security number for lookup. She gave me a 1-800 number to call and told me the number was being used specifically for the situation I described ( fraudulent account opening ). After being on hold for almost 30 minutes, I spoke with an agent who told me I needed to call a different 1-800 number. I was on hold for another 30 minutes until finally speaking with a representative. The representative was able to close the account, but I never received any written confirmation of this ( either email or paper mail ).

Product: Consumer Loan — Installment loan
Issue: Taking out the loan or lease — 
Company: Mobiloans, LLC (NJ)

In a time of financial hardship, I turned to the internet in search of a personal loan. I ran across many websites which purport to lend installment loans at a much higher interest rate. At that time, I was unaware of the usury laws which protect consumers of NJ from loans with interest rates above 30 %. I was in such dire need that I applied for numerous online installment loans and was approved for all three. I made payment religiously whenever they were due, however, I was recently made aware by the attorney I work for that these loans are illegal and that most likely none of these lenders is licensed to lend monies in NJ. Any money owed to this company was paid well over the amount borrowed. The interest rate charged was well over XXXX %. This complaint is for one of the companies, however, I will be submitting separate complaints for each of the lenders.
