Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc
State: PA

Complaint narrative:
Someone gained unauthorized access to my PayPal account. They added their own email address, phone number, and bank account to my PayPal and then initiated a transfer from my bank to theirs for the amount of {$830.00} on XXXX XX/XX/year>. I saw this transaction on my bank account on XXXX XX/XX/year>. I notified my bank and PayPal that this transaction was fraudulent. My bank determined the transaction was fraud and refunded me the money. PayPal is insisting that it was a legitimate transaction, adjusted my PayPal balance to - {$830.00} and is trying to make me pay the {$830.00}. I disputed this with PayPal. They have repeatedly denied my claim and have now sent my account to a collections agent. PayPal has provided conflicting information about the status of my account and the status of my cases. They have not responded to my request for additional information about their investigation and how they supposedly determined that the transaction was legitimate. Their latest claim is that the changes made to my account ( the addition of the new email, phone number and bank account ) were unauthorized, but the transfer of {$830.00} to the individual who made the unauthorized changes is legitimate.

Company: Experian Information Solutions Inc.
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. 

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft. 

This is a violation of both XXXX5 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

I understand the process of the investigation is to reach every individual company to verify the accuracy of the information. In accordance with FCRA, Section 611 A through D, you are supposed to let me know who you verified with. In my original investigation request sent I asked you to delete anything that is not XXXX percent accurate. 
This is not the time to update since you had time to update after the first letter. Now that I have pointed out the mistakes, updating the other accounts is an admission of guilt and a direct violation of my rights to a fair investigation. You stated it was verified. How is it possible that TransUnion, XXXX, and XXXX all verified the accounts above as accurate, but they all have inconsistencies in the reporting? In fact, there is no possible way a full investigation could have been done in accordance with Section 611 due to the inconsistencies coming after my original request for investigation. 
At this point, I demand you delete these accounts immediately, or I have no choice but to seek counsel to point out the rights that have been violated under the FCRA. Please forward me an updated credit report after you have completed your deletions and corrections.
