Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, FL XXXX XXXX : XX/XX/XXXX SSN ( Last XXXX ) : XXXX Subject : Formal Notice of Dispute Concerning Unauthorized Disclosures, Inaccurate Reporting, and FCRA Violations To Whom It May Concern : This correspondence serves as a formal demand for the immediate investigation and correction of material inaccuracies and unauthorized disclosures present in my consumer credit report maintained by your agency. Upon thorough review, I have identified multiple violations of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), codified at 15 U.S.C.

1681 et seq., and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, particularly 15 U.S.C. 6802. 
I. Unauthorized Disclosure of Personal Information Pursuant to 15 U.S.C. 6802 ( b ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ), consumer reporting agencies are prohibited from sharing personal information with third parties absent clear, conspicuous disclosure and express written consent. I have not provided such consent for any disclosure of my personal data to third parties. Accordingly, I demand documentary evidence of my express written authorization. Failure to produce such documentation will constitute a de facto violation of federal law. 
XXXX. Federal Trade Commission Complaint Filed Due to the serious nature of these privacy violations and the unauthorized dissemination of my information, I have filed a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission ( Complaint No. XXXX ). Given the risk of potential identity theft arising from these violations, this matter is being treated with the utmost urgency.

XXXX. Request for Verification Documentation Under 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), consumer reporting agencies are obligated to ensure maximum possible accuracy.

Thank you for your prompt attention. I anticipate your full compliance in accordance with federal law. 
Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
