BECAUSE YOU WERE MADE AWARE THAT THE ACCOUNTS WERE FRAUDULENT. Then allowed them to be replaced. Though you received both and identity theft report and a police report allowing you the information that my identity documents were stolen before the opening of this account.

17. A crime was committed against me. My information was fraudulently used and a fraudulent account was opened. You removed it and then allowed it to be replaced though you were made aware of : FCRA 611 ( 15 U.S.C. 16811 ) PROCEDURE IN CASE OF DISPUTED ACCURACY 5 ( a ) ( I ) ( c ) States : Procedures to reappearance.

You have willfully failed to delete the disputed information as I have requested. In lieu of the disputed information, you willfully failed to conduct a reasonable investigation to my dispute because you believe it was certified. However, your excuse and assumption is a not valid reason under the FCRA to not block the information according to the above laws. Note, you have not made any reasonable determination that my dispute was frivolous or irrelevant. Nor stated that you believed it was you have simply refused to comply with out any reasoning backed by law or the fcra.

20. It is crucial to note that since the payments were made by the fraudster, I can not be held liable for any such transactions under FCRA 615. The FCRA mandates that any payments made from fraudulent accounts should not implicate the actual victim of identity theftin this case, myself. I did not authorise these accounts nor open these accounts. Nor make past payments on these accounts. The person who fraudulently assumed and took over my identity did. 
21. So past payment for a fraudulent account made by the fraudsters will not constitute as validity.
