Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023, XXXX  and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Case No. XXXX provided a letter stating that the XXXX XXXX account in question was accepted as a fraud claim. The charges and late fees were made to a XXXX, and a request was sent to Equifax and XXXX to remove the reporting that resulted for this XXXX XXXX account . A copy of the XXXX letter is provided with this report. 

I wanted to add that a complaint was filed with CFPB first regarding Equifax 's reporting of XXXX XXXX XXXX now the XXXX XXXX  was strangely re-added to my Equifax report, with no explanation. This was obviously not computer generated, since there was no change to my credit score, only a re-addition to my credit report of this fraud account.
