Complaint narrative:
Despite my previous three written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. In their responses to my dispute letters, they stated that they have verified the items listed as accurate but failed to send me copies of the documents used to verify these accounts, as per my request.

Their failure to provide these documents indicates that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts as claimed. Furthermore, their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after three written requests demonstrates a willful disregard of Federal Law.

Please review the attached letter. Thank you for your assistance.

Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Company: CAPITAL ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Dear Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, I am writing to bring to your attention a grave issue involving Capital One 's handling of a fraudulent scheme that has caused me significant financial and emotional distress. I have been a victim of a long-term confidence scam that Capital One has failed to address with due diligence. 

Despite my multiple reports to Capital One, including the submission of a detailed police report, they have not taken adequate measures to protect my account or recover the stolen funds. The scammers attacked my accounts in numerous ways, which I promptly reported to Capital One. They assured me that the calls were recorded and that an investigation would be conducted. However, no effective action has been taken, and my financial security remains compromised. 

It is my belief that Capital One 's failure to act is a form of retaliation due to my outspoken criticism of XXXX XXXX, Capital One 's XXXX. My statement expressing frustration with XXXX XXXX ' practices was an honest reflection of my experience and belief that he has been enriching himself at the expense of his customers. The subsequent lack of support from Capital One appears to be a direct attempt to silence and punish me. 

Furthermore, I am currently battling XXXX XXXX, and the emotional strain caused by these fraudulent activities has exacerbated my condition. The scammers exploited my vulnerability, using my healthcare needs to distract me while they carried out their attacks. Capital One 's inaction has not only allowed these perpetrators to continue their malicious activities but has also added undue stress to my already challenging health situation. 

I demand that Capital One be held accountable for their negligence and retaliatory behavior. They must conduct a thorough investigation into my case, reimburse the stolen funds, and implement stronger security measures to prevent such incidents in the future. Additionally, I request a formal apology for the distress and harm caused by their inaction and retaliatory actions. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will take the necessary steps to ensure justice is served and that consumers are protected from such reprehensible actions. 

Sincerely, XXXX
