Complaint narrative:
A while ago I noticed that there were so many things on my credit that I can not even begin to guess where these fraudulent accounts came from. So, I requested validation ( in the form of the original contracts ) from the bureau for each fraudulent account so that I could actually get to the bottom of who was using my identity and to also get this information removed. I sent in a letter and a FTC report just like the bureau requested 2 months ago and I still havent received any original contracts, or the method of verification, who they spoke with at these companies and the information is still on my report.
