Complaint narrative:
To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to request the immediate blocking and deletion of certain fraudulent accounts from my credit report, pursuant to my rights under federal law The breach was a direct violation of the companys duty to protect the personal information of consumers and subjected millions of individuals, including myself, to the risk of identity theft. 
As a result of this breach, I have been a victim of identity theft, with fraudulent accounts being opened in my name without my consent. Under 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 ( a ) of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to have these fraudulent items blocked from my credit report. 
Applicable Law : 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 ( a ) According to this law, a consumer reporting agency such as Equifax is required to block the reporting of any information in a consumers credit file that the consumer identifies as a result of identity theft, provided the consumer submits : 1. Proof of identity 2. A copy of an identity theft report ; 3. Identification of the fraudulent information ; 4. A statement that the information is not related to any transaction by consumer. Proof of identity ; A copy of an identity theft report ; Identification of the fraudulent information ; and the compliance with this legal requirement, I am providing : fraudulent proof of my identity ( enclosed ). A copy of my identity theft report ( enclosed ). A list of the fraudulent accounts ( provided below ). A statement affirming that these accounts were not authorized by me and are The following accounts were opened without my consent and must be blocked and permanently deleted from my 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2 ( a ) Obligation to Remove Fraudulent Information 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 6 ) Duty to Block Identity Theft-Related Information 15 U.S. Code 1681e ( b ) Duty to Maintain Maximum Accuracy 15 U.S. Code 1681i ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) Requirement for a Reasonable Investigation 15 U.S. Code 1681c ( a ) Prohibition on Reporting Obsolete Information 15 U.S. Code 1681g ( a ) Right to Clear and Accurate Information 15 U.S. Code 6801 Protection of Nonpublic Personal Information 15 U.S. Code 6802 Restrictions on Disclosure of Consumer Information 15 U.S. Code 1692 Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ) Prohibition of Unfair and Deceptive Practices Additionally, Experian and Equifax are currently facing lawsuits by the CFPB for failing to properly investigate consumer disputes.
