'' XXXX. Furnishing certain deceptive forms " ( a ) It is unlawful to design, compile, and furnish any form knowing that such form would be used to create the false belief in a consumer that a person other than the creditor of such consumer is participating in the collection of or in an attempt to collect a debt such consumer allegedly owes such creditor, when in fact such person is not so participating.

*All voice-mail recordingsWITH " THREATENING of legal action '' were SAVED. ( List FCRA VIOLATIONS ) - FCRA STATES " a consumer reporting agency is uniquely positioned to identify certain obvious inaccuracies and implement policies, procedures, and systems to keep them off of consumer reports. '' " Such as when certain account or other information fields on consumer reports are logically inconsistent with other fields of information, a consumer reporting agency can detect the logical inconsistencies and prevent the inaccurate information from being included in consumer reports it generates, thereby avoiding the consumer harm to individual consumers that can result from reporting such inaccurate information. '' - Consumer reporting agency 's policies and procedures should be sufficient to detect tradelines with account statuses or codes that are plainly inconsistent with other information reported for that same account, such that, if included in a consumer report, at least one item of information therein would necessarily be inaccurate. 

- Section 607 ( b ) of the FCRA provides that whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. 

- The failure to maintain reasonable procedures to screen for and eliminate logical inconsistencies, to prevent the inclusion of facially false data in consumer reports, is a violation of their FCRA obligation to follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy under section 607 ( b ) of the FCRA. 

" TRANSUNION '' and " XXXX '' were BOTH made aware of the false information with the reported FTC REPORT NUMBER RECEIVED WHEN FRAUD INVESTIGATION CASE WAS OPENED XX/XX/XXXX XXXX 

TRANSUNION and XXXX are VIOLATING SECTION 607 ( b ) BY CONTINOUSLY REPORTING INCONSISTENT and FALSE INFORMATION. FAILURE to PROPERLY INVESTIGATE and RESOLVE CONSUMER DISPUTES. 

INACCURATE REPORTING SHOULD BE PERMANENTLY REMOVED FROM MY FILE due to KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY REPORTING FALSE INFORMATION which in turn is ADVERSELY HURTING MY REPORTS. PER SECTION 607 ( b ) of the FCRA. 

BOTH " XXXX '' AND " TRANSUNION '' ARE REPORTING THIS ACCOUNT AS " UNCHANGED '' starting as of XX/XX/. THE CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES continue to ALLOW '' XXXX XXXX XXXX " TO SUBMIT INACCURATE INFORMATION. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX HAS FREQUENTLY CHANGED REPORTED INFORMATION. 

I AM REQUESTING DEBT VERFICATION fully suporting every claim reported on my credit file FROM EACH CREDIT REPORTING AGENCY and FURNISHER THE START TO NOW FROM EACH CREDIT REPORTING AGENCY REFUSING TO DELETE NEGATIVE INFORMATION THAT IS ADVERSELY HURTING MY FILE. 

MY FILE HAS SIGNIFICANTLY BEEN AFFECTED DUE TO THE FURNISHING OF INACCURATE INFORMATION ALONGSIDE THE FREQUENT NEGATIVE REPORTING BY " XXXX XXXX XXXX. '' FCRA STATES : The businesses covered by the law must provide copies of these records, free of charge, within 30 days of receiving the request for them in writing. 
The Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), the nations consumer protection agency, enforces the FCRA including this requirement, which is known as Section 609 ( e ) This account from " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' has been furnishing INACCURATE INFORMATION. " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' FURNISHING AND REPORTED MULTIPLE AMOUNTS NEVER RECEIVED. KNOWINGLY FALSIFIED REPORTING OF INACCURATE INFORMATION which is CONSIDERED FRAUD. 

" Financial statement fraudis the deliberate misrepresentation of the financial condition of a company accomplished through the intentional misstatement of amounts or disclosures in the financial statements with the intent to deceive the financial statement users. '' The STATEMENT IN COMPARISON TO WHAT IS BEING FURNISHED AND REPORTED IS INCONSISTENT AND INACCURATE. 

The furnished information compared to the fabricated statements DOES NOT reflect what is being reported by " XXXX XXXX XXXX '', " TRANSUNION '' nor " XXXX ''. The Letter does not reflect either statements or reported balances/amounts. INTENTIONAL DECEPTION AND FRAUD. 

FCRA Regulations and Codes States : INACCURATE and INCONSISTENT reporting SHOULD BE REMOVED BLOCKED AND DELETED and NOT RESUBMITTED.

If unable to provide valid information that fully relates in accordance to what had been reported, I am demanding this account to be BLOCKED and removed as it is hurting my file and score VERY significantly. THE statements are FRAUD and SHOULD HAVE NOT BEEN USED TO UPDATE MY FILE. 

Transunion refuses to remove inaccurate information but continues to update it with ADDITIONAL INACCURATE INFORMATION despite being made aware that the information from the fradulent statements were used to update my file with ADDITIONAL INACCURATE, FRAUD, and INCONSISTENCIES. 

The statements and every updated reporting or what has been reported previously, CLEARLY show VARIOUS DIFFERENCES in the reported INFORMATION. 

The frequent changes submitted by the furnisher as REQUIRED by the FCRA MUST provide PROOF that the information reported has been ACCURATELY VERIFIED, according to TRANSUNION and XXXX XXXX XXXX, THEY STATED THIS INFORMATION TO BE ACCURATE, WHICH IS A FALSE STATEMENT. 

TRANSUNION updated my file using THE INACCURATE STATEMENTS AS " VERIFICATION '' ALTHOUGH, IT HAS BEEN CLEARLY STATED THE STATEMENTS WERE FRAUD and ALL Reportings INACCURATE. THE STATEMENTS ARE FRAUD. 

Due to this, my credit score has BEEN TREMENDOUSLY AFFECTED, negatively impacting file and score.
