Complaint narrative:
XX/XX/2022, I sent a letter to the court house asking if they reported my bankruptcy to the credit bureaus. I received a letter stating that they do not report bankruptcies to any entities. If that is indeed true how is it that the credit bureaus verified the bankruptcy action as 100 % accurate. The bureaus did not complete a fair investigation according to the Credit Report Act 15 U.S. Code 1681. 

15 U.S.C. 1681 section 603 ( 3 ) ( E ) states : The term investigative consumer report means a consumer report or portion thereof in which information on a consumers character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living is obtained through personal interviews with neighbors, friends, or associates of the consumer reported on or with others with whom he is acquainted or who may have knowledge concerning any such items of information. However, such information shall not include specific factual information on a consumers credit record obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from a consumer reporting agency when such information was obtained directly from a creditor of the consumer or from the consumer. 

The credit bureaus also violated my rights given under Credit Report Act 15 U.S.C 1681 section 602 ( A ) ( 4 ). According to this law I have a right to privacy. 

Accuracy and fairness of credit reporting. The Congress makes the following findings : There is a need to insure that consumer reporting agencies exercise their grave responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumers right to privacy. 

According to 15 U.S.C. 181 Section 604 A Section 2 also states that a consumer reporting agency can not furnish an account without my written instruction.

According to 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( A ) ( 1 ) A person shall not furnish any information relating to a consumer to any consumer reporting agency if the person knows or has reasonable cause to beliefve that the information is inaccurate.

Complaint narrative:
Debt collectors aren't supposed to commit abuse, deceptive and unfair debt collection practices but your firm has done so. 


A debt collector furnishing an alleged debt to my consumer report as a means of coercing me to pay an alleged debt is extortion. Collection of extensions is a violation of 18USC894 and carries a criminal liability up to 20 years.

Debt Collectors do not have any lawful right to be in possession of my identifying information.

A debt collector thats furnishing a collection to my consumer report is in violation of 15 USC1692d ( 4 ) which is engaging in unlawful extortionate activities. 


Coercing myself to pay you an alleged debt by ruining my financial reputation is a violation of 18 USC894. Now because you all benefit at my expense, the debt collector, original creditor, and consumer reporting agencies again are engaging in racketeering activity 18 USC 892 ( b ) ( 1 ) -Companies have no right to attempt to collect the alleged debt by way of judicial processes.

Again debt collections can't lawfully : Possess by identifying information, Contact me about an alleged debt, ruin my credit, or SUE me for nonpayment of a debt.

Please understand debt collector has no lawful standing according to 15 U.S. Code16921 ( b ) Please understand this is also aggravated identity theft 18 USC 1028A.

Lastly, 15 USC 1692c ( a ) states debt collectors shouldnt be contacting me if I didnt give prior consent. 

Im requesting to have this alleged trade line debt to be removed effective immediately from all CRAs

Complaint narrative:
I got an email saying that if I made an XXXX purchase, the sender would refund my purchase. I made the purchase, and the sender said that I had to purchase a gift card before I could get refunded. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent {$150.00} through XXXX to an email account the sender provided for a {$300.00} gift card. On XX/XX/XXXX the sender said they ran out of {$300.00} gift cards so I had to buy a {$500.00} gift card, so I sent another {$100.00} through XXXX. Then the sender said this second payment was sent to the wrong email ( I clicked his XXXX profile to send money the second time, I guess his profile was linked to a different primary email ). Then XXXX blocked me from sending money to this contact, so the sender sent me a different email account. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent another {$100.00} through XXXX to this new account. Then the sender said I had to purchase a {$1500.00} gift card. I didn't send any more money, and the sender refused to give me a gift card or refund me money I'd already sent. I reported the three transactions as fraudulent ( couldn't find a way to report scam ) through XXXX 's resolution center on XX/XX/XXXX. On the morning of XX/XX/XXXX the sender threatened to hack my XXXX account if I didn't close the case. On the night of XX/XX/XXXX, I got a response from XXXX that my case was closed and no money would be refunded. The money transferred through XXXX came from my Wells Fargo checking account. I tried to dispute the 3 transactions through Wells Fargo, but there was no option to dispute them.

Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern I write to you this letter in hope to receive mercy with the situation we are in. I've been a XXXX XXXX owner since XXXX. We specialize in XXXX XXXX and XXXX  of XXXX XXXX. We are a XXXX XXXX XXXX  and we take responsibility and pride for the work we do and how we treat our clients and business partners. 
In the year XXXX  we made a wrong move by using our home equity funds to attempt to save the XXXX XXXX that was suffering from lack of finance, directly associated with the economic crash. 
We were trying to stay afloat and borrowed for business expenses associated with investments that eventually were all lost due to the market crash and recession that followed. 
Unfortunately my properties were lost to short sales and in regards to the equity line that was used for them, I was qualified for Obamas loan forgiveness and as a result my equity loan with XXXX XXXX Bank account # XXXX was charged off in XXXX of XXXX  The times were extremely hard, everything we worked so hard for was gone. We were struggling to survive day by day, devastated to be left with very little workflow and lots of bills. At that time my sister-in-laws family with their three children moved in with us for nearly three years, we were supporting each other in the devastating times for our businesses. 
I was under the impression that the second loan was dismissed along with short sales and other losses we suffered. I was advised by the firm that was helping us through the crisis, that the government had a rescue plan for the XXXX  crash, and we qualified for the benefit. 
For the next 13 years I believed in good faith that it was exactly that, I didnt see the loan any longer in my credit report, believing that in fact it was charged off. 
Recently, I received communication from Trinity, Financial Services with an account # XXXX, After reaching out for advice to my financial consultant and Trinity associate, I came to a realization that the loan hasnt vanished, but instead, it has doubled in the amount and that now Im at risk to lose my home. Im investigating to see what happened and why the loan we were told got dismissed in reality is still pending. As I am searching for answers and trying to retain my home, Trinity is not accepting my offer to remove the lien of my property. Instead, they are asking for unmanageable amount as down payment and repayment of the loan that was charged of by government assistance in XXXX. 
As of today, the mortgage payment I have is already above 50 % of our family income and in good faith I will not be able to pull another loan. 
Im investigating the cause of failed loan forbearance, and unfortunately not getting anywhere. Please help me to figure out the best option to save my home.

Im considering filing for bankruptcy at this time.

Thank you.
