Complaint narrative:
Someone is stealing my identity and opening accounts in my name without my knowledge or authorization. I received a letter from XXXX XXXX stating that I applied for credit with them. I did not apply for credit with them. Someone did so without my knowledge and authorization. The letter states that I have account delinquencies, public record and/or collection accounts, that I have too many accounts ( I only have two credit cards and one auto loan ), that my delinquencies are recent, and that the proportion of balances on my credit limits are too high. 

I have never been late on any of my accounts, I have never been delinquent on any payments. I have no public record or judgments and I have never filed bankruptcy. I have no accounts in collection. I only have two credit cards, and one auto loan. I have no delinquencies so I have no recent delinquencies. I keep my credit card balances low. My credit report has numerous errors and unauthorized accounts. 

I suspect that familly, particularly my daughter and/or her new husband are involved in the identity theft.

I recently received a copy of my credit report, and I noticed a collection posted on my credit report from Paramount Recover System.There has'nt been any documents provided stating this is a factual account. Also, this account appears to be purchased from another company.

Company: Convergent Resources, Inc.
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
this about the account with convergent outsourcing. The dispute results that were sent to me were not what i asked them to correct. I requested the account to be deleted from collections because one of their representatives whom I called and spoke with falsely reported their company would remove the debt from my credit report if I agreed to pay the settlement payment which was agreed to. But the debt is the still on my credit report. So, my complaint is I was lied to and promised something that I was trying to do in good faith. I know the phone call was recorded and would and it will have the entire conversation on that day. I would like them to present it to your company so you will hear exactly what was said. it will let you hear the young lady i spoke with promise to delete the account if i paid the settlement. I did exactly that. But the account is still listed. This is false representation and deception to the consumer who has trusted these agencies and is trying to do what is right to resolve issues on their credit report.

Re : Dispute of Unauthorized Hard Inquiries on [ XXXX XXXX XXXX ] 's Credit Report. 
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to dispute unauthorized hard inquiries that are present on my credit report. As a responsible consumer, I understand the importance of accurate credit reporting, and I am exercising my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable consumer protection laws. 
The unauthorized hard inquiries I am disputing are as follows : [ XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] and [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXXXXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] and [ XX/XX/XXXX ] and [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] and [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] [ XXXX ] - Inquiry Date : [ XX/XX/XXXX ] Please note that I did not authorize or initiate these inquiries, nor did I provide written or oral consent for these parties to access my credit report. According to Section 604 ( a ) ( 3 ) of the FCRA, a credit reporting agency may furnish a consumer 's report only under limited circumstances, such as when a consumer has given written or oral permission or when the transaction is initiated by the consumer. In this case, neither of these conditions has been met.

As required by the FCRA, I kindly request that you conduct a prompt and thorough investigation into these unauthorized hard inquiries and remove them from my credit report. Under Section 611 of the FCRA, you must complete this investigation within 30 days of receiving my dispute letter.

Please send me written confirmation that you have received this dispute and an updated copy of my credit report reflecting the removal of these unauthorized inquiries. If you determine that these inquiries were indeed authorized, please provide proof of my consent in writing.
