RE : EQUIFAX VIOLATIONS OF FCRA. 

THIS IS NOT A REQUEST TO REINVESTIGATE for more than 30 days. 

THIS IS CALLS FOR DELETION OF THE REAGED, INACCURATE AND INCOMPLETE ACCOUNTS thats currently reporting on my consumer report. I have supplied the accounts. 
NO NEED FOR A REINVESTIGATION. 



According to Congress, FCRA 15 USC 1681 ( a ) Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting The Congress makes the following findings : ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. 

( 3 ) EQUIFAX, A Consumer Reporting Agency have assumed a vital role and have a responsibility to report Consumer information to the best of their ability with Maximum Accuracy. 


( 4 ) There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for my right to privacy.

FCRA gives me the RIGHT TO PRIVACY.

I did not give EQUIFAX written consent to furnish any of my information. I attached the law below ; 15 USC 1681b Permissible purpose- ( a ) In general 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 XXXX XXXX XXXX have or ever had ANY WRITTEN CONTRACT WITH XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Whoever, knowingly transfers, possesses, or uses, without lawful authority, a means of identification of another person shall, in addition to the punishment provided for such felony, be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of 2 years. 



Also, The law says EQUIFAX cant just furnish my consumer report to ANY and EVERYONE that requests it. 

They shall verify the identity of a new prospective user and the uses certified by such prospective user PRIOR to furnishing my consumer report. 

YOU didnt do that. 


15 USC 1681e Compliance Procedures- ( a ) Identity and purposes of credit users ; Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title.

You are supposed to have procedures in place to protect my info 2. you are supposed to certify the info 3. You are supposed to certify the written permission 4.
