Complaint narrative:
Good afternoon, Hoping you can help- I have listed on my credit reports a balance from a credit card that is not mine, it belongs to my mother. When I was started college in XX/XX/XXXX she had given my a card from her account in my name ( as an additional card holder ) for emergencies. She did not know this had turned up on my credit until I had tried to sign for up for a lease after I left my dorm room this past year. 

She has tried several times having this removed from the company to no avail-last conversation in XX/XX/XXXX, which she has an email confirmation of if needed. The credit card company has since sold off this debt to another company ( letter received XX/XX/XXXX ) but now both have said they can't do anything about it. My mother also has an attorney that said it shouldn't be on there. She was able to have one of them removed but the other is still showing up. 

Original company was called : XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX Credit Card ) XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Showing up as on my reports as XXXX = {$7200.00} which was sold to XXXX   XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, VA XXXX XXXX She has tried all avenues and haven't been able to have this corrected. I'm asking if you could please assist in this matter. I will be turning XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and my mother and I don't want to start off with this incorrect information. 

Thank you-XXXX

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2018 I was involved in a scam.My XXXX account had wrong billing information so I called XXXX to resolve the issue. The lines were disconnected and i received a call back from an individual falsely identifying themselves as employees of XXXX. The individual then informed that my XXXX account was being hacked. He told me I needed to buy XXXX cards to contact the servers to fix the situation. After I got them, he told me that I was being hacked by XXXX servers and I needed to purchase " XXXX XXXX '' cards. I purchased some and they were telling me that some of the cards were working and others were not and that i needed to purchase more to have my phone unhacked. They were telling me that i was going to get a full refund because it was a problem that happy because of XXXX and XXXX. It really got out of hand and I didn't realize it could be a scam till one of the banks told me that these has been happening recently. I had no idea. These individuals were using tech jargon and giving ID numbers and phone numbers, I honestly should have known and I used poor judgment in this matter. A police report was filled.
