Complaint narrative:
I am submitting this complaint to formally report fraudulent and inaccurate accounts that have been erroneously reported on my credit file by the major credit reporting agenciesEquifax, XXXX, and XXXX. These accounts were opened fraudulently without my knowledge or consent, and I do not recognize or have any association with them. 

I contacted the creditors associated with these accounts more than 30 days ago to request copies of all contracts, signatures, and documentation they have regarding these accounts. Despite my repeated requests via phone, email, and mail, I have received no response. The credit reporting agencies have similarly failed to take appropriate action to investigate and resolve my disputes. This negligence violates my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) and other applicable laws.
