Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Source Receivables Management LLC
State: MA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX an unknown XXXX account was discovered while looking at my credit report. The account balance was {$530.00} dollars with the collections agency " XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. I obtained a police report on XX/XX/XXXX to put in a dispute with XXXX  and the other credit bureaus since this account us unfamiliar and does not belong to me. The account was removed from my report, but the collections was then sent to a company called " XXXX XXXX ''. 

I contacted this organization that provided an account number, what telephone numbers were opened under my name to the XXXX  account ( I did not recognize either ), and that the account was opened on XX/XX/XXXX for {$530.00}. I sent my police report to XXXX XXXX and they told me that I would be removed from this debt since it is identity theft. 

This is now the third collections agency, under the name " Source Recievables Management '', who has this account from XXXX but I have not recieved a single physical paper letter from them. I filed another dispute on XXXX  and XXXX  during XX/XX/XXXX, but now they are stating that they can not place a fraud block onto this account. This is the exact same collections account from when I first reported it to the police. I want this removed from my credit report as it is not mine and keeps returning, which is effecting my overall credit score!

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint due to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and the credit reporting agencies ' continued reporting of a charged-off account that contains multiple inaccuracies, conflicting information, and remains unverified despite my formal dispute. 

Specifically : The Bank XXXX XXXX account is listed with XXXX different open dates XX/XX/year> and XX/XX/year> on my credit reports. This inconsistency violates FCRA 1681e ( b ), which requires information to be reported with the maximum possible accuracy.

The account has been charged off and is still being reported without any proper verification or validation, violating FCRA 1681i ( a ) and FDCPA 1692g ( b ). 
I requested validation and proper reinvestigation from the credit bureaus, and they failed to provide documentation from XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX verifying the debt. Under FCRA 1681s-2 ( b ), if the information can not be verified, it must be deleted.

The conflicting open dates also raise concern about illegal re-aging of the account, which can extend how long the negative mark remains on my report, in violation of FCRA 605 ( c ).

I have provided the credit bureaus with supporting documentation highlighting these discrepancies, and I have requested the immediate removal of the account. To date, no proper verification has been provided, and the item remains on my credit report.
