Company: TD BANK US HOLDING COMPANY
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
A scammer pretending to be XXXX XXXX ( gave me phone numbers, employee id number, ... ) told me that they were having trouble opening the account I requested. When I told them I had not tried to open an account, they had enough information on me to convince me they did - name/address ( likely from a compromised credit card from about a week prior that had been cancelled ). The scammer caught me at a bad personal time- my cousin had just passed and my father was in and out of the XXXX, so I took their word and did not hang up the phone to check the phone number and employee id. They told me they could help me fix this by following certain prompts on my phone. They told me I was putting through codes and it was not transferring money and for 3 days the process continued- they would call me and tell me what to put into my phone that was either going through XXXX  or XXXX XXXX  from my TD account. On the 4th day, I saw that the money was coming out. 
I went to the police and the detective was able to confirm what I was telling was true as he spoke to one of the few numbers I had been in touch with before they realized who he was. 
This is clearly a scam, and I have lost my son 's spring college tuition. As a single mother, this is particularly difficult. The TD bank " investigation '' says I moved the money and they continue to maintain that I am at fault. I have never gone to the police before and I just want what is rightfully mine. Banks are insured and their should be some help available when the police can verify my story. 
The transaction dates are as follows : XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX {$730.00}, XX/XX/XXXX - {$2500.00} XXXX XXXX, {$1000.00} XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$900.00} XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$500.00} XXXX XXXXh, XXXX XXXX s- XX/XX/XXXX {$2500.00} XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - {$660.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$410.00} XXXX XXXX  XX/XX/XXXX - {$330.00} XXXX XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$290.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$280.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$220.00} XXXX XXXXXXXX, XX/XX/XXXX - {$200.00} XXXX XXXX The total taken by the scammer is consider XXXX XXXX  : {$9800.00} via XXXX XXXX and {$730.00} via XXXX. 
I have shared all police reports which include confirmation by Detective XXXX of the scammers process and I don't believe that TD is reading them, they just see I transferred the money. 

For reference the incident was reported with the XXXX XXXX ( NY ) Police. The case number is XXXX, XXXX XXXX : XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint regarding an issue with my credit report that is negatively affecting my financial standing. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this matter directly with the creditor/furnisher, but they have failed to provide an adequate response. Below are the details of my complaint : XXXX. Charged-Off Account or Collection Account Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXX Account Number : XXXX Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXX  Account Number : XXXX Creditor/Collection Agency Name : XXXX XXXX Account Number : XXXX Issue : This account was charged off/placed in collections without proper notification or validation of the debt. 

I requested validation of the debt per my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), but the creditor/collection agency failed to provide sufficient documentation. 

The reported balance and payment history contain inaccuracies that I have disputed with the credit bureaus, yet the creditor refuses to correct or remove the erroneous data. 

The account was sold to a third-party collector, yet it remains listed under the original creditor, creating duplicate reporting and unfair harm to my credit profile. 

I am requesting the immediate deletion of this inaccurate and unverifiable account from my credit report or proper documentation proving its validity. 

XXXX. Unauthorized/Incorrect Hard Inquiry Company That Performed Inquiry : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Date of Inquiry : XX/XX/year> Issue : I did not authorize this company to pull my credit. 

No written consent or permissible purpose exists for this hard inquiry, which is a violation of the FCRA ( 15 U.S.C. 1681b ).

Despite my dispute, the credit bureaus and the creditor have refused to remove the unauthorized inquiry. 

I am requesting the immediate removal of this hard inquiry from my credit report, as it was made without my authorization.
