On XX/XX/2022 I filed a dispute with all three bureaus : Experian, XXXX XXXX and XXXX involving a Parent Plus Loan for {$1600.00} with XXXX for XXXX XXXX that was fraudulent. All bureaus responded back that the merchant validated the dispute by verifying my name and address solely, which is not a thorough investigation of any kind especially considering that with fraud that information is already knowledgeable to the person or body committing this offense. At no point did they cease the reporting of the erroneous information until a thorough investigation was completed mainly due to the fact that they failed to conduct a proper investigation. I provided all bureaus with tangible proof and information, and they still failed to investigate what was being reporting to them as well as refuse to remove the negative marking as well.

On XX/XX/2023, received debt collect email for {$510.00} from Columbia Debt Recovery llc dbz Genesis for XXXX which is over parkway lofts apartments. This amount was a false move out fee which was already disputed with the apartments years ago. In fact they still have a {$500.00} deposit which we never got back which is supposed to go to fees like the one they made anyway, but again the move out charge was already disputed and the apartment could not even prove the charge just sent random photos of a clean apartment. 
Even just taking a look at the XXXX pages for Genesis, and XXXX there are thousands of complaints of fraud and people having to take them to court every year. Also hundreds of reviews on XXXX how the Genesis employees verbally abuse and harass people. After multiple calls with Genesis who even they saw that the {$500.00} deposit money is on the lease and we never saw any of it, they keep saying they tried to call XXXX over and over but never get a response back. This has made a negative report on our credit scores for a false charge as well as our security deposit money being withheld.

" Method of Verification Dispute Notice : Remove these Fraudulent Accounts, Inquiries & Inaccurate Personal Information. 

The banking system is contingent upon equitable and accurate credit reporting, as stated in the equitable Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ). The banking system 's efficacy is directly impacted by inaccurate credit reports, and the public 's confidence is undermined by unfair credit reporting methods, which are essential for the system 's continued operation.

Therefore, the efficiency of the finance system is compromised whenever the FCRA is violated. This is a violation of my privacy with respect to my consumer report, as I have the authority to determine which items are included and which are not. Identity theft is the act of reporting any accounts without my written consent.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This results in civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n. The law permits a {$1000.00} fine per violation for each account listed without my expressed written assent. 

I reviewed my consumer reports and observed accounts that I had never granted anyone permission to report. Consumer reporting agencies have taken on a critical role and are obligated to report consumer information with the utmost accuracy, as the Fair Credit Reporting Act explicitly stipulates. I did not provide written consent to report them. I am expressing my dissatisfaction with the contents of the attached file.
