Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
The items listed below are reported on my personal credit file and were found in my reports with XXXX credit reporting agencies. These items were opened fraudulently. Ive informed all parties of the issue & provided the necessary documentation to support my claim. The credit reporting agency ( CRA ) & data furnisher ( DF ) are not complying with federal law in regard to identity theft. Additionally, the credit reporting agency & data furnisher have not provided me with any evidence of an open contract, signed contract, or any valid proof this was opened, authorized, or created by me. Since this is a strict violation of FCRA laws I need the items removed from my file.

Complaint narrative:
I lodged a complaint with these Bureaus a month ago, but unfortunately, the inaccurate information on my report still remains. I haven't received any communication from the Bureaus, except for the notification that you sent stating that the company has responded to my complaint. How can I be certain that they have thoroughly checked the inaccuracies on my report? What methods did they employ to validate the accounts? This whole situation is incredibly frustrating! It's been more than 30 days since I filed a complaint with these Bureaus, and yet the disputed accounts have not been updated. If this continues, I will have no choice but to take legal action due to the immense stress this has caused me. Moreover, I am also concerned about the security of my personal data, as it was affected by the XXXX, Experian, and XXXX data breach.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the collection account reported by XXXX XXXX, which is listed on my credit reports with Equifax, XXXX, and XXXX. The account details indicate a balance of {$1300.00}, with the original creditor listed as XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. The account was opened on XX/XX/year>, and is marked as " Open '' with a status of " Derogatory '' and remarks including " Placed for collection '' and " Dispute resolved-subscriber disagrees. '' Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681, I am exercising my right to dispute the accuracy, validity, and completeness of this account.

I demand validation of this debt in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g ( b ), which requires that XXXX XXXX provide a copy of the original signed agreement containing my full signature and Social Security number as evidence of the alleged obligation. Additionally, I request proof of assignment or transfer of the debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX. to XXXX XXXX, as required to establish the legal enforceability of this debt. Without these documents, this account must be considered unverifiable and removed from my credit report. 

The failure to provide adequate documentation violates 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which obligates credit reporting agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of information on credit reports. Furthermore, the remarks stating " Dispute resolved-subscriber disagrees '' suggest previous disputes have not been adequately resolved or investigated in compliance with FCRA standards . This reflects a violation of my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), which requires a thorough reinvestigation of disputed information.

As this account is inaccurate and unverifiable, I request its immediate removal and deletion from my credit reports with all three major credit bureaus. Continued reporting of an unverifiable or inaccurate collection account is a violation of my rights under both the FCRA and FDCPA, and I reserve the right to pursue further legal remedies if this matter is not promptly resolved.
