Company: GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA
State: SC

Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I have been dealing with identity theft for the past year and a half and it is a difficult and troublesome on-going issue that Im still trying to resolve. There is an on-going identify theft alert in my name with FTC. Ive also put a year fraud alert with credit companies for this entire year. Please re-open an investigation for this fraud case on my behalf. Furthermore, I have also enclosed a police report for the illegitimate charges as well circumstances that have caused the identify theft in the first place. Apple card issued by Goldman Sachs Bank USA has blocked me from seeing my bank statement under my apple ID : XXXX I have reported many charges which were fraudulent to them, however, they have re-billed everything that were reported. I can not see anything on my end I have no access to see what is happening to my account. However, I was afraid of interest would accrued on the card I just kept paying until I was able to reach out. They never returned my emails or phone calls and I'm left in the dark on why my fraud claim isn't resolved. As explained when I have reached out to them about those charges, which I can't see since my account was closed without notice, that are fraudulent due to identity fraud. 

They recently claimed they found not fraud on my account which is inconsistent to what I have originally reported to them. My phone was lost with my wallet, my virtual card is on that phone. How can you not find fraudulent activities on my card when that happened?? 
Moreover, I don't have access to this email address XXXX anymore because it was hacked into when I lost my phone. 

Again I received no communications from XXXX to its day. No reasons given as to why they closed my account either.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX Cashapp took money on XX/XX/XXXX when I made deposit. When asked about the missing money I was given a vague answer to why the money was missing and I had to probe for further details and when they provided the details I further disputed it because there was no transaction that happened to prove their claim. When I asked to further the dispute it took them a month and everytime someone answered my question they had me start the process of explaining the situation all over so that I could never get my issue addressed. It was close to XXXX XXXX that went missing and the transaction they claim that was put back into my account was only for {$63.00} and they won't acknowledge the issue or give me further information about the missing money

Complaint narrative:
I sent my letter off on XX/XX/2023. I told the credit bureaus to " investigate and validate every piece of information and ensure everything was accurate '' on the accounts I have listed below. I also have attached the letters I sent out certified mail and here are the Tracking # 's. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX According to the FCRA the term " investigate consumer report '' means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumer 's character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living, is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. 

They stated my accounts were verified but how is that possible if they did not do a proper investigation according to the law. Also every piece of information on the accounts are still not reporting 100 % accurate. And according to the FCRA 15 U.S.C. 1681 everything has to be 100 % accurate. Also I have the credit report showing the inaccuracies. They also violated my rights 15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A Section 2 : The law clearly states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instructions. 

I haven't given these agencies written permission to furnish these accounts on my credit report as well.

Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt

Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: NC

Complaint narrative:
I the consumer have asked XXXX XXXX XXXX to validate the alleged debt he claims that I owe, and all he has provided me with are statements to an Alleged account that he can not prove is mine. I never gave XXXX XXXX XXXX consent to use my private personal information for anything. I do NOT have a contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX or his company. 
This is the 3rd attempt and I still have not received the relevant paperwork that the law requires this debt collector to provide the me the consumer. XXXX XXXX XXXX and his company have violated my Consumer Rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) 15USC 1692 ( g ) b Validation of debts. 
You XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) failed to validate this alleged debt. 
I refuse to pay this alleged debt until the proper validation of this debt is provided. 

You are an attorney/debt collector is this correct? If so, I imagine you know the difference between a Validation and Verification of Debt Pursuant 12 CFR 1006.34c. 

This is all hearsay, what firsthand knowledge do you have? This is all false and misleading information. 

Furthermore, I request verification of the alleged debt, specifically, a copy of a CONTRACT or AGREEMENT. Said contract or agreement must be with the original creditor and signed by all parties involved. You are illegally attempting to collect this alleged debt and money that I do not owe. 

An attorney can not be a debt collector and a debt collector can not be an attorney. You are claiming to be both an attorney and a debt collector.

Company: National Credit Adjusters, LLC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding an inaccurate debt entry that has been reported on my credit report. After reviewing my credit report obtained from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, I discovered a debt associated with XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX that I have never opened or authorized. 

The details of this erroneous debt entry are as follows : Creditor 's Name : NCA  Original Creditor : XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX Amount of Debt : {$390.00} I want to emphasize that I have never had any financial dealings with XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX and have never opened an account with them. The inclusion of this debt on my credit report is not only inaccurate but also damaging to my creditworthiness and financial reputation. 

I have taken immediate steps to dispute this erroneous debt entry with  [ creditor 's name ] directly, but they have failed to respond or rectify the matter. It is disheartening that despite my diligent efforts to address this issue, the credit reporting agency has continued to report this inaccurate and unjust debt entry, which has had a profoundly negative impact on my financial standing. 

I request that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau launch an investigation into this matter and take the necessary actions to rectify this egregious error. I kindly ask that you contact NCA/XXXX XXXX XXXX  on my behalf and demand that they provide verifiable proof of the alleged debt or immediately remove the entry from my credit report. 

I implore the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to expedite its investigation into this matter as the inclusion of this false debt on my credit report is causing significant distress and adversely affecting my financial well-being. I kindly request that you keep me updated on any progress made and provide me with regular updates on the resolution of this issue. 

Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience should you require any additional information or clarification regarding my complaint. 

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I am confident that with the intervention of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, this erroneous debt entry will be swiftly rectified, and my credit report will be restored to its accurate and fair state.
