After trying to deal with all 3 credit bureaus and XXXX XXXX, I am making a formal complaint against all 3 bureaus and XXXX XXXX/XXXX  Acct # XXXX because are reporting inaccurate information on my credit report. I am in upset since finding out they have included the information on my credit profile month after month, and that they have failed to provide any follow up to determine whether the information was fraudulent, but they have continued to report without giving me the opportunity to defend these false claims. I am not in the best position to pay or lose money on an account that is not mine. As a matter a fact, they lack to do their due diligence, which is required by law, meanwhile I'm in distress because it's preventing me from obtaining a stable credit rating. Please, I would appreciate any assistance with this misleading company. I have attempted to explain that this account was fraudulently opened to set me up for failure, and is now impacting my personal and professional lifestyle. Please remove immediately.

Im not just going to believe XXXX XXXX just because they say so? I thought the whole purpose of the law was for them to provide proof within 30 days. It's been almost 10 months. Why hasn't this company sent to me whatever information they are sending to the credit bureaus that the account is " verified as accurate and updated ''? I don't believe the debt can be validated. I don't believe the bureaus did an investigation because when I asked how was it verified the bureau 's response was to contact the creditor. I did that and they didn't answer. How is it that this account is active as of XXXX of XXXX when there is no payment history of any kind?

At this time, I can not get a loan and this is affecting my life and my credit rating. My credit is being affected very badly. But when I started monitoring my credit report I noticed that there was a Chargeoff in XXXX of XXXX and it also said that I paid them as agreed in XXXX of XXXX? How could that be if It was charged off in XX/XX/XXXX? I also discovered that this account had 3 different date last active of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. I had to look it up on the internet and found out that this tactic is what they call an account that is being re-aged. My credit report is supposed to be 100 % accurate and its not. Ive asked for this account to be removed but they did not do anything. Please delete this account is in error. 

I will attach evidence that line up with what I said.
