Complaint narrative:
As a victim of Equifax data breach and upon examining my credit reports, I noticed that although you have not provided any evidence to support the accuracy of the debt, you are claiming that the following accounts are mine and negatively impacted. Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), you are legally required to block and remove this information from my credit file upon receipt of notice and supporting documentation. Moreover, you claim to have complied with all legal and regulatory reporting requirements, thus you have to delete all fraudulent negative and critical accounts.

Since the creditor failed to meet this obligation, I request that you update the late payments on my account to reflect positive, ontime payments.

Adverse action against a consumer is prohibited by 15 USC 1691c and 15 USC 1692k and is punishable by civil liability. These businesses are in violation of 15 USC 1691 because I have proof that I was the victim of discrimination due to the reaction I received. My social Security ( my credit card ) was used but I received nothing in return. Please remove the unauthorized inquiries and incorrect personal information from my consumer report.
