The letter that was written to the third party was on XX/XX/2024 Jefferson Capital Systems LLC XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Sir/Madam, Subject : Dispute Regarding Account Verification for XXXX Credit Card I am writing in response to your recent letter dated [ date of their response ], regarding the verification of the account referenced to the XXXX Credit Card XXXX I appreciate your prompt attention to my request ; however, after reviewing the enclosed documentation, I am still unable to recognize or validate this account as belonging to me. 

While your letter confirms receipt of my validation request and states that documentation has been provided, it does not sufficiently address my inquiry regarding the purpose of the credit card in question or provide concrete evidence linking me to this account. I remain unaware of any association with XXXX Credit Card, and the documentation provided does not establish my ownership or authorization of the account.

I reiterate that I have no knowledge of this account and therefore request that it be removed from my credit report as soon as possible. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, I am entitled to accurate and verifiable information on my credit report. As such, I kindly request that you conduct a thorough investigation into the validity of this account and provide any additional evidence or documentation supporting your claim. 

Additionally, I appreciate your acknowledgement of my dispute and request that consumer reporting agencies report this account as disputed. Please ensure that this dispute status is accurately reflected on my credit report during the investigation process. 

I trust that you will handle this matter with the utmost professionalism and diligence. Should you require any further information from me, please do not hesitate to contact me at XXXX or XXXX Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Company: TRANSUNION INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Transunion regarding their handling of my consumer/credit report, which I believe to be in violation of federal laws passed by Congress, including Title 15, the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ). 

Since XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, I have been corresponding with Transunion regarding identity theft and fraud on my consumer report, stemming from a data leak at XXXX that compromised my private information. Despite numerous communications, Transunion has failed to address my concerns and continues to report inaccurate information on my consumer report. 

I have repeatedly informed Transunion that it is unlawful for anyone to possess my private information ( such as name, address, SSN ) without my consent or authorization. Despite providing evidence, including correspondence from creditors acknowledging fraudulent accounts opened in my name, Transunion has refused to remove or block these fraudulent entries from my report.

Furthermore, Transunion has disregarded my requests to adhere to federal laws enacted by Congress, which mandate accurate and truthful reporting on consumer reports.

I have taken the necessary steps to protect myself, including filing a report of fraud and identity theft with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) ( Report # XXXX ) and providing XXXX with current identification and supporting documents to verify my correct information. However, Transunion has failed to assist me in rectifying the situation and continues to ignore my demands for accurate reporting. 

I am seeking the assistance of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to protect my rights and ensure that Transunion complies with federal laws governing consumer reporting. I request that the CFPB investigate this matter thoroughly and take appropriate action to compel Transunion to remove fraudulent entries from my consumer report and report accurate, honest, and truthful information.

Relative laws 15 U.S. Code 1681b, 15 U.S. Code 1681c, 15 U.S. Code 1681c1, 15 U.S. Code 1681c2, 15 U.S. Code 1681e, 15 U.S. Code 1681i, 15 U.S. Code 1681n, 15 U.S. Code 1611, 15 U.S. Code 1681s, 15 U.S. Code 1692, 15 U.S. Code 1692e, 15 usc 1666.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and resolution of this issue.

Complaint narrative:
I discovered this company ( XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX had been reporting two fraudulent credit card accounts on my credit reports when I obtained my credit reports on or about XX/XX/XXXX, following my denial of favorable auto loan financing on or about XX/XX/XXXX with an auto lender. Subsequent to discovering these fraudulent accounts, I immediately alerted the the company each of the credit bureaus, the FTC and filed identity theft reports with my local police department. I contacted this company by telephone multiple times and spoke at length with several different representatives from their internal Fraud department to file a complaint and learn more information about the details of the nature of the company and how the fraud was able to transpire. Each representative I spoke with asked me a series of security questions such as my phone number, email address, bank account numbers, SSN, DOB, and other personal information and informed me that their conclusion was that the accounts were indeed opened by someone else who had been using my identity, but different contact and banking information. I was provided a report number and informed that an internal review of their findings by a higher department would be concluded within 3-5 business days and that I should expect to see these accounts deleted from my credit reports " very soon. '' That was over 45 days ago and I have yet to receive any communications from this company and these fraudulent items are still reporting on my credit reports. I also received communication from the credit bureaus via updated credit reports around XX/XX/XXXX, stating that this company had initially certified to the credit bureaus that these accounts were being reported accurately despite my initial request to the bureaus that this information be blocked due to being the result of identity theft, which also further violated my rights under federal law.
