Chime bank denied my claim. I did not get the email yet why they denied my claim. But I am a victim. The man who stole my money sent me a code and told me that it was to confirm my identity and that code was how much he took out my bank. He told me he wasnt going to keep the money he was going to send it right back. The real XXXX said XXXX would never take money to varify your identity. These scammers had remote access to my phone and bank account through the app i download that he told me was XXXX secure link called XXXX. I just want my money back. He stated his name XXXX XXXX, and I have audio of him acknowledging that I didnt allow him to take any money from me. Also I have a text of him the next day saying he would refund the stolen money, but he never did. I had no knowledge of this app XXXX or that it would be able to see my bank info.

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, these two accounts below have violated my federally protected consumer rights to privacy and confidentiality, and fairness in the consumer market. 

Account # XXXX Account # XXXX 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 A states that I have the right to privacy.

15 U.C.S 1681 section 602 A Section 2 : It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. 

15 U.S.C 1681c ( a ) ( 5 ) section states no consumer reporting agency may make any consumer report containing any of the following items of information - any adverse item of information, other than records of convictions of crimes antedates the report by more than seven years. 

15 U.S.C 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) a person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if they person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. 

I disputed these two accounts, and they were verified despite there being inaccuracies of date of account and address.

One of these accounts was repeatedly re presented to cause repeated injury to my credit, an account from XXXX presented as new repeatedly in XXXX, and the consumer reporting agency allowed this. 

The agency did not furnish me with a report on the investigation on how they verified the account which in itself is another violation of my consumer rights, as per Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). Section 611 ( a ) of the FCRA requires a CRA to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of any item of information in a consumers file if the consumer alleges the item to be inaccurate. 

With regard to this I would seek remedy as is statutorily my right to do. This is unfair. The debt was incurred as a result of the pandemic and issues with the property and landlord, and there was considerable dispute such that it was an unfair assault on my credit to allow it to be repeatedly presented as a new debt, the original company refused to investigate the issue and assist me at a time of need. 

There must be rules on CRA allowing furnishers to attack the credit of a consumer in this way? 

I am seeking consolidation loans to assist with managing my debt and to finance my business growth to increase my income, towards buying a house etc and these erroneous statements on my credit are negatively impacting my life.

I have this credit card, so I am not sure how this was possible. It appears it was purchased in store at Best Buy in XXXX, IL. I live in XXXX, IL.
