Complaint narrative:
EOS CCA According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), EOS CCA they are required by federal law to verify - through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract - any and all accounts they post on a XXXX XXXX  unfortunately they have not done so. Otherwise, anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, or email in a fraudulent account. 

I demanded to see the Verifiable Proof ( an original Consumer Contract with my Signature on it ) if they have it on file for the alleged account. Their failure to positively verify these accounts has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA, unverified accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of the verifiable proof, they must remove the accounts and stop reporting them immediately.

For that reason, the CFPB and the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), which together with the CFPB helps enforce fair credit reporting laws However, the FCRA requires procedures to assure accuracy, and the fact that a CRA obtains information from another source simply does not mean that the information is free from error These CRA 's are erroneously reporting inaccurate information on my consumer file and requesting me to provide them with personal information pertaining to my person, however, are allowing 3rd party furnished to provide them with personal information to be included in my consumer report, this constitutes fraud and defamation of character.
