Complaint narrative:
I have been disputed the accuracy and verification of a bankruptcy listed on my credit reports for over a year. The outcome always states that it has been verified either by the courts, or XXXX XXXX. I received a letter from the court stating that they do not verify Bankruptcies, and XXXX XXXX has been frozen since XX/XX/2023, and I submitted my disputes in XX/XX/2023. 

I also received emails to verify my identity in order to stall my dispute... However on XX/XX/2023 when I mailed off my disputes I included my lease and My Drivers License. That would mean that they never even looked at my letters and completed a proper and fair investigation. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. 15 U.S.C. 1681 section XXXX02 A States I have a right to privacy. 15 U.S.C 1681 section 604 A section 2. It also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. Public Record XXXX XXXX XXXX - XXXX XXXX. XXXX. XXXX Has violated my rights.

Company: FORD MOTOR CREDIT CO.
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I received a call from a blocked number claiming to be from an unspecified process server that wanted to confirm I was home to serve papers for a legal case. The person on the other end of the call would only give a case number, a phone number : ( XXXX ) XXXX, and that the law firm in the suit was XXXX and XXXX. I did not give the person any personal identifying information, but they had publicly available information about me as well as the last 4 digits of my SSN ( which they disclosed to me without taking any reasonable steps to verify my identity ). 

I then looked up the number given and the name of the law firm, but there was not enough information to identify the law firm and the phone number search did not return anything. 

I then contacted the XXXX number to get more information. The person I spoke to claimed to be calling about a XXXX auto loan for a car that was repossessed 19 years ago. They threatened me with wage garnishments and liens on my property if I did not acknowledge the debt and agree to repayment. Again, I did not give the person any personal identifying information, but they had information on the loan, including a loan amount and an amount owed on the vehicle.
