Not too long ago i saw strange purchases on my credot cards that were not things i myself had purchased. So i had them all replaced and those specific purchases marked as fraud. Then on XX/XX/2023 I noticed a hard inquiry on my transunion account that I had nothing to with. It was from chase Bank who I have never used so it made no sense why i would have a new hard inquiry from them.

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: National Credit Systems,Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB Complaints Department, I am writing to file a formal complaint against National Credit System for their relentless pursuit in attempting to collect a debt that is a direct consequence of identity theft. An individual, using my stolen identity, leased multiple apartments across the country simultaneously and failed to pay rent. Despite my efforts to provide National Credit System with evidence of this fraudulent activity, including a police report, FTC affidavit, proof of identity, proof of residency, and the multifaceted nature of the identity theft incident, they persist in their collection efforts. Their actions blatantly violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). 

The debt collector, National Credit System, has continually disregarded the evidence provided, which unequivocally proves that the debt in question is a result of identity theft. Their actions not only defy the FCRA, which explicitly mandates fair and accurate reporting, but they also ignore the multifaceted nature of this identity theft incident, which has resulted in multiple fraudulent leases across various locations. 

The following are the laws and regulations that National Credit System is violating under the FCRA : Failure to conduct a reasonable investigation into the disputed debt, as required under 611 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) of the FCRA.

Neglecting to cease collection attempts and reporting to credit agencies on a disputed account, as mandated by 611 ( a ) ( 2 ) ( B ) of the FCRA.

Failing to comply with the FCRA 's requirement to verify the accuracy of the debt following a consumer 's dispute under 611 ( a ) ( 7 ).

As a result of their persistent and unlawful actions, I demand the following immediate actions be taken by National Credit System : Cease all collection attempts related to the fraudulent debt associated with multiple leased apartments resulting from identity theft.

Remove any and all mentions of this debt from my credit reports.

Provide written confirmation that they have ceased collection efforts and taken necessary steps to remove this fraudulent debt from my credit history within 30 days.

I am providing additional copies of the evidence supporting the multifaceted identity theft incident and the fraudulent nature of this debt. It is my expectation that the CFPB will promptly investigate this matter and take necessary actions to ensure that National Credit System adheres to the laws set forth by the FCRA. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt assistance in resolving this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I have contacted Experian XXXX XXXX agency numerous of times around XX/XX/XXXX regarding the account that appears on my credit report. The company in dispute is XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, dated XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$2500.00}. I also contacted XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and ask them to validate the debt by providing me with documentation that proves this account belongs to me. They have not been able to provide me a solution and told me I would have to contact Experian regarding the account. On XX/XX/XXXX I received notification that the account was deleted from consumer report. Upon checking my account some time later around XX/XX/XXXX the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX account was back on my consumer report after already being disputed and removed removed. It is my understanding that before reinserting an account that has been removed I should have been notified, which I wasn't. I have sent letters to Experian demanding the account be removed again but they have failed to do so. I have not been provided with any documentation as to why this account still remains. This is an urgent matter that must be taken care of immediately as it is affecting my credit negatively and my ability to flourish and provide for my XXXX kids in a sufficient manner.

Company: MOHELA
State: WA

Complaint narrative:
In XXXX I began payments on my XXXX student loan. I made monthly payments to XXXX until my loan was sold to XXXX in XXXX. I then paid them monthly until XXXX stopped payments. I continued to make payments when I could and my loan was sold to Mohela a few months ago. I still made payments to Mohela and when the loan started up again I looked to see how much I had left to pay. My heart sank. I now owed over $ XXXX. How did my loan grow? Before XXXX it was in the low $ XXXX range. I contacted Mohela and asked them this question. They could not answer. I requested a record of every payment that I have EVER made as they should have received those when they bought my loan. I tried to contact XXXX but I no longer have an account with them and could not speak to them without one. It has been almost two months and Mohela still has not provided me with an explanation or record. I would like Mohela to bee looked into because I believe that they made a mistake along the lines. They were either charging a gross amount of interest during XXXX, which was not supposed to occur, or they messed up the amount owed. I believe that others are also having this issue and that this company needs to be looked into.
