Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: AAS Debt Recovery, Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
I discovered a collections account had been added to my credit score under a previous legal name ; I disputed with the credit reporting agencies, and several times with the debt collection agency directly, asking to be put in touch with someone who handles fraud - yet they maintain that the debt is accurate and provide no information on how I might send documents to challenge the claim.

After months of dealing with the accounts impact to my credit score I finally received a page of information detailing how the account was opened. The information provided to open the account can be determined as fraudulent within seconds because the number generation system that is used for Illinois drivers licenses could not have produced the ID number provided given my name and date of birth. 

I continue to ask where I can send copies of my actual license to verify this discrepancy and I am given fax numbers that are not operational and no clear answers on who specifically I need to contact to dispute this obvious issue of fraud that should have been spotted before the account was ever opened.
