Complaint narrative:
It appears that my credit file has been compromised. Again, I was going through my records & noticed many items which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b of the FCRA, you are required by law to remove & block any items which are found to be opened due to identity theft. The dispute items do not belong to me.

Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove these files.
