Complaint narrative:
My name is XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against XXXX XXXX, for committing identity theft. I have never given XXXX XXXX, any permission to use any of my identifying information to commit mail fraud by contacting me about an alleged debt they claim I owe. I am aware that in accordance with Article 9, the assignment of a defaulted note is illegal. Both the assignee and the assigned are both liable for violations under 15 U.S. Code 1692e ( 12 ). 

I have not validated any alleged debt with XXXX XXXX and my failure to dispute the validity of these alleged debts shall not be construed as an admission of liability. As of XX/XX/2022, I have not received any documentary evidence, such as a trilateral contract, giving XXXX XXXX any right to collect on this alleged debt. 
I have never received any documentation requesting validation from XXXX XXXX, before they committed multiple violations under the FCRA and the FDCPA by furnishing this alleged debt to my consumer report, including but not limited to 15 U.S. Code 1692d ( 4 ) which the FTC defines as debt parking. If XXXX XXXX, can not provide me with proof such as a tracking number that they attempted to lawfully validate this alleged debt with me, the consumer, prior to furnishing it on my consumer report, this has been a fraudulently furnished account with forethought and malice as an attempt to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. 

I am legally refusing to pay this debt pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1692c ( c ). I am demanding a cease and desist of all illegal activity, any communication and collection activity, of this and any alleged debts until XXXX XXXX, can provide me with sufficient documentary evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay them. If this documentary evidence can not be produced and XXXX XXXX, continues its collection efforts, I will file for litigation for actual damages caused and XXXX XXXX, will be held criminally liable for aggravated identity theft pursuant to 18 USC 1028A, extortion, theft by deception, securities fraud, and mail fraud. Upon the receipt of the documents herein and of this notice, you are hereby notified Pursuant UCC 1-202f. Your prompt attention and response are both requested and required.

Complaint narrative:
In reference to the following accounts : *XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) *XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) Ive sent all of the documentation required to verify that I was indeed a victim of identity theft. A year goes by and Equifax still is reporting incorrect info on my profile. So, yesterday XX/XX/2022 I called Equifax to address the issue and this is what I was told. 

XXXX Yes sir, we can see that youve been disputing this issue, we also see youve sent in the police report and other documents that verify the claim, however it seems as if the box office decided not to use those documents and declined to pursue the matter as identity theft. We just processed this as a normal dispute. 

XXXX Why would you not use the proof and evidence to report the issue the correct way so that the matter can be resolved, this false reporting is affecting my familys livelihood. This is incorrect information on my credit report that is keeping me from being able to do the things I need to do to provide and take care of my family. 

XXXX Yes sir I do understand and agree with you completely. However, theres nothing I can do about it. The box office makes those decisions. 

Me- That is not ok. These things need to be removed today. Pursuant to these codes : * 15 USC 1681 A 3 * 15 USC 1681 A 4 * 15 USC 1681 B 2 Equifax- Im sorry sir, we can begin a new dispute. 

XXXX Why would we need to do that if the dispute is old and is currently still in process. That would restart my statute of limitations clock. Then youll drag the process out another year or XXXX. I dont want to file another dispute today, I want these XXXX accounts deleted now. This is wrong!! 

Then XXXX XX/XX/2022 I called Equifax and immediately requested to speak to a supervisor in the fraud department. The lady replied and told me that she was indeed the XXXX in the Fraud Department. I later learned her name to be XXXX XXXX ( Work I.D.- XXXX ) Ultimately XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ), heard me out and was attempting to initiate the process of removing the accounts. However she told me she needed me to include the account numbers in this CFPB Complaint, before she can proceed.

Complaint narrative:
Equifax Consumer Reporting Agency has damaged my reputation by furnishing incorrect and private information on my consumer report without my consent. Congress makes it clear, pursuant to 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 3 ) that Equifax has assumed this role in the evaluating the credit worthiness, all without my prior consent. Reporting my private information without my consent is in violation of federal law. Equifax is also in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681 ( a ) ( 4 ), as they are NOT exercising your grave responsibility with fairness, impartiality, or a respect to the consumer 's privacy. The report is unfair, partial and not respectful in any way to my privacy. Furthermore, I never instructed Equifax to furnish or create this report. This places Equifax in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) as they never received written instructions from me, the consumer, nor did I ever consent to the report in the first place.

Complaint narrative:
According to the 15 U.S. Code 1681- Congressional findings and statement of purpose, Consumer reporting agency Equifax have assumed a vital role in assembling and evaluating consumer credit and other information on consumers.

I have never given permission or consent. Because of Equifax taking it upon themselves to assume this role, my privacy has been breached numerous times over the years, information has been reported incorrectly countless times and this in turn has had a negative impact on my credit score and me personally consenting to doing business with various companies.
