Complaint narrative:
Per previous complaint XXXX I was exposed in several data breaches including XXXX data breach. I give Transunion permission to proceed with this complaint. I have sent over id theft reports and police reports and have asked Transunion several times to remove the fraudulent account and provide validation of debt. They have failed to throughly investigate 15USC 1681i ( a ) 6 ( B ) 3, 15USC 1681i ( a ) 5 ( B ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX $ XXXX account needs to be removed. To make matters worse this account had to be included in chapter XXXX bankruptcy and has been discharged, XX/XX/XXXX case # XXXX. Transunion continues to not only report this fraudulent account but to also refuse to put account back at XXXX balance. I was told they never received notice if my bankruptcy when the courts notifies all major credit reporting agencies and it was marked on report before. It is against the law to try to collect on a debt that has been discharge by US bankruptcy court. A creditor who violates this order can be held in contempt of court and required to pay damages and attorney fees to the debtor which is myself. 

On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I have contacted Transunion on chat and phone about this issue and was told by XXXX in the special handling dept that he can not access my file to help me and that it has to be sent for maintenance to call back in 5 business days. I however called back today XX/XX/XXXX and spoke with XXXX XXXX a supervisor in special handling, because I received alerts of adverse information that does not belong to me. There was addresses, phone numbers, employers, and accounts added that I am not familiar with after this said maintenance. I have asked was my file merged with someone? Where did they get this information I have not been associated with. I asked her to validate the social on these accounts with my real social she states she can remove the incorrect personal information but can only dispute the accounts.
