Complaint narrative:
I have no relationship with the following named companies, their subsidiaries or affiliates. I received the following email communication on XXXX with the regarding clause : XXXX followed by Notice of Adverse Action. 

I have never applied for a loan with this company and believe that my personal identifiable information has been misused fraudulently to apply for whatever loan this company and email are referencing. I wish to ensure that there is no impact to my credit rating resulting from any fraudulent inquiry they, their affiliates, subsidiaries and/or future assigns may have placed or will make. 

This company was deliberately evasive with their contact information and did not provide a city, state or zip code and I believe this form of communication is meant to deceive the least sophisticated consumer and to further defraud.
