Company: Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX, Portfolio Recovery Associates filed a lawsuit against me over an account that was fraudulently opened online, one of many accounts. It was my very first time ever receiving a lawsuit from anyone. I did not know, or understand my rights under the FCRA. To be fair, this is a first time I dealing with an extensive identity fraud where I am struggling to restore my identity. As a victim of domestic violence, which began with Identity fraud, i learned over time the correct protocol with my situation. I filed police reports, FTC, and IC3 reports/ complaints as well as gave copies to the 3Bs as well as all Creditors/ Agencies showing that I am a victim of Identity Fraud. For the most part, some respectfully removed the accounts but others responded with they disagree since after their investigation, their reports are accurate. I then asked for copies of original contracts where it showed, I signed and dated. One responded with they decline to provide me what I asked, Portfolio Rec Associates, on the other hand sent me several letters this week, 3 of which they are closing and removing accounts. But the account, filed lawsuit in XXXX, in the letter was statements wrong information for example it says The account was active since XXXX. I know for a fact that is not true and I can prove it. None of which was the original contract, but the final page was the judgement in their favor. That was the concluding evidence for them to have it remain on my credit report, and approved by both XXXX as well as XXXX. I investigated further and found out that those statements are completely bogus. It is not an official statement, in fact, the return address does not in no way link to the bank. It links to random pdf files of other statements, then from those it links to a completely website where it shows where the money is really going. 

I am beyond exhausted with this whole process. I am victim of identity fraud and XXXX  XXXX survivor, XXXX  for the second time because of my credit. Companies like Portfolio Recovery Associates pray on the most vulnerable as if its an easy target. Theres no telling how many other they have done this too. Moreover, only time will show who is honest and who was deceiving.

Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to the courthouse asking do they report Bankruptcies to the credit bureaus and I got a letter stating, They do not report any bankruptcies to anybody. If that is the case, how did the credit bureaus identity my bankruptcy as 100 % accurate? Your company never did a fair investigation according to the 15 U.S.C 1681. Where are you getting my private information when the courthouse stating they do NOT report bankruptcy?
