Complaint narrative:
In my previous complaint I had stated that I had revoked all consent that I may have given to this company to furnish my nonpublic information on my consumer report. Now, since they have clearly shown no interest in respecting my right to privacy, I am submitting this complaint before I proceed with legal action as it violates my rights as a consumer. In this complaint, I will discuss 3 important notes about the following account # XXXX. I have discussed the matter further on the attached dispute letter. 

The first thing to take note on is that pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 6802 XXXX XXXX did not ; A ) disclose to me, the consumer, that the information reported would be disclosed to the third party nonaffiliate, AKA the consumer reporting agencies such as XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion. 
B ) XXXX XXXX did not give me an opportunity to direct that such information not be disclosed. 
C ) XXXX XXXX did not give me the consumer an explanation of how I could exercise the nondisclosure option. 

The law basically states that if all 3 of these disclosures were not provided to me, that is a direct violation of 15 U.S. Code 6802 and I have the right to exercise opting out. All 3 of these disclosures were not met, therefore I am demanding to opt out of having my information reported and demanding the reporting information to be DELETED from my consumer report. Additionally, in XXXX XXXX terms and conditions they agreed NOT to share my information with non affiliates. XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion is not an affiliate of XXXX XXXX nor are they " bureaus ''. The only true credit bureau is the CFPB and they DO NOT furnish consumer reports as stated in federal law. 

The second thing to take note on is that XXXX XXXX is in violation of multiple laws set forth by Congress in regards to the account because pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( a ) ( i ), it states that the consumer report does not include information solely as to transactions or experiences ( payment history, charge off status ), between the consumer ( myself ) and the person ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, Transunion ) making the report. Additionally, per 15 U.S. Code 1681 s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) states that a person ( XXXX XXXX ) shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer ( XXXX ) to any consumer reporting agency ( XXXX, Transunion, XXXX ) if the person knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the information is inaccurate. XXXX XXXX can not collect on a XXXX debt. This is now considered a certificate of indebtedness per the IRS and income can not be reported. The IRS Clearly defines a charge off / cancelled debt as Gross or Ordinary income, INCOME DOES NOT GET REPORTED ON THE CONSUMER REPORT which in fact makes reporting of this account inaccurate. I provided a screenshot from the IRS website. By XXXX, the IRS Clearly says a Cancelled debt or XXXX off is XXXX. The reporting of this account as a debt is inaccurate. I never received a 1099 form from XXXX XXXX for the cancelled debt in order to file as ordinary income. 

Lastly, I did NOT give XXXX, XXXX, or Transunion written authorization or written instructions to report this information pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ). And when I gave them my consumer instruction to remove this account, they denied me my consumer right. They have not only violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act, but they have committed aggravated identity theft as I clearly did not consent / revoked consent and Ive sustained defamation of my character, just to name a couple damages should this matter escalate to court. Because both XXXX XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, and Transunion have conspired against me collectively, they have both collectively violated my rights under 18 U.S. Code 241 - Conspiracy against rights, which states 18 U.S. Code 241 - Conspiracy against rights If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same ; or If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than XXXX years, or both ; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to XXXX
