I am submitting a complaint with you today to notify you that I have fallen victim to identity theft. After reviewing my credit report, I was dismayed to discover multiple items that I did not open and have no knowledge of.

As per Section 605b of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Credit Reporting Agencies are obligated to remove any accounts and information listed on an Identity Theft Report. I have attached the necessary documents to facilitate the blocking of the erroneous information that has been added to my credit report without my consent. The following items are not authorized by me and do not belong to me : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXX/XX/XXXX XXXX According to FCRA Section 605B ( a ), Credit Reporting Agencies are required to block any information in a consumer 's file that the consumer identifies as resulting from identity theft, within four business days of receipt.

I've attempted several times to ratify the issue with the original creditors and credit bureaus and they still reporting inaccurate, unverifiable information. I have disputed this item with the credit reporting agency and they reported you confirmed the account as valid. I honestly do not believe to ever have any relationship with this collection agency or original creditor. Also there are several inaccuracies with this account the way it's reporting and that's a total violation of FCRA and FDCPA laws and regulations.

What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4. Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in this state. 5. Please evidence proof of the alleged debt, including the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature. 6. Please provide a complete account history, including any charges added for collection activity. 
You have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to provide strict proof of contract. In the event you can not provide strict proof of contract, you must cease and desist any and all collection efforts and immediately remove any derogatory information reported to the consumer reporting agencies. In addition, you will need to provide me your agreement, in writing, that you are closing your file, ceasing collecting activity, and deleting all information related to this reference number from any and all credit reports youve furnished the information to.

On Monday, XXXX XXXX, 2016, my son deposited {$500.00} CASH into a XXXX ATM which was to be deposited into my Citizens bank account. Thinking that because it was cash, it would be available for use the next day or, 2 days at the most. Two days passed and the funds were still not available. I called my bank, Citizens and they told me that these funds were " on hold '' and would not be available until Monday, XXXX XXXX, 2016. Not only that, but Citizens could not give me an explanation as to why they would hold a cash deposit for this long period of time. This money was to be used for a bill that was due, but since I could n't have access to my funds, this bill was paid late. My complaint is, I think that it is very unreasonable for Citizens to place " on hold '' a cash deposit for this length of time and not give me an explanation as to why.
