Complaint narrative:
Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft. I researched on how to remove the fraudulent accounts in my report and found that I need to visit FEDERAL TRADE COMMISION or https : //www.ftc.gov to file a report and Per FCRA section 605b Credit Reporting Agencies are required to remove/block any accounts listed on an id theft report. Please find the ATTACHED documents to assist in the blocking of the erroneous information which is being posted to my report.. I was going through my credit file & noticed many files which do not belong to me. Since Im a stickler for research, I found that under section 605b ( a ) XXXX and Equifax shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt and it requires the following documents and statement to remove the disputed accounts on my file : ( 1 ) Appropriate proof of the identity of the consumer ; ( 2 ) A copy of an identity theft report ; ( 3 ) The identification of such information by the consumer ; and ( 4 ) A statement by the consumer that the information is not information relating to any transaction by the consumer.

The dispute items do not belong to me. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) That alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) That is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) The filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) Here is the list of accounts/items which do not belong to me or were opened without my permission. 

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/2019 Balance {$0.00} and XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Opened XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX Balance {$2600.00}. 

According to FCRA Section 605B ( a ) the CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES shall block any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, on XX/XX/2022, I submitted a dispute in regard to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that I believed to have the wrong information in regard to the attorney that was listed on my file with Transunion. I submitted the request over the phone with a representative and the individual advised me that dispute will be submitted, and it could take up to 30 days to complete. I checked my file the same day and saw the dispute was in fact submitted. The next day XX/XX/2022 I checked my file, and it showed that the dispute was completed and resolved. While I did not expect the research to be completed this soon, I was taken aback by the quickness of the research. I wasn't able to view the results on their website as outlined and when I called to ask about it, I was advised that I would get a letter in the mail. Today XX/XX/2022, I did receive a letter stating my dispute was resolved and accurate as reported. My complaint is how was this dispute submitted and resolved in one day. My letter does not outline what resources were utilized to confirmed what I stated was incorrect. As I was doing some further research in regard to the bureaus, I found a document from the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis dated XX/XX/2022, that was detailing Transunion practices where they were completing automated reviews and not truly following the process outlined within the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S.C. 1681-1681x ).

I sent letters out to all 3 credit bureaus regarding items on my credit report that are not accurate which is a FCRA violation and you must abide by the law. All information I have provided in my letters is true and accurate to my knowledge. I am the one sending the letters and filing this complaint with no help from a credit repair or 3rd party. I know this is a violation of my rights due to the bureaus not providing a notice of dispute and for failure to communicate to me that I disputed stuff on my credit. I just want these accounts to be removed from my credit report immediately or I will take legal action and hire a lawyer. I am trying to purchase a home soon and these negative items are holding my score back.

Complaint narrative:
I am disputing the account ( s ) stated in this document. Previously, I disputed this account information as being inaccurate, fraudulent, and invalidated and you responded by stating you were able to verify or validate this debt. Tell me how is that possible when you have employees and an automated system judging my disputes within seconds? Its no way a real investigation was made. I have contacted the creditor myself, and they have failed to validate that this is indeed my debt with the original contract/note. I have copies of my requests to the creditor, asking them to validate the debt with contracts, as well as the receipts showing I sent them a letter by certified signature request. I was given no evidence of my obligation as owning this debt to these creditors. I have every right to believe This debt is not mine. The Fair Credit Reporting act requires you to verify the validity of this within 30 days. If the validity can not be verified, you are obligated by law to remove it from my credit file. I urge you to remove this account before I am forced to take legal action. If you can not verify the item pursuant to FCRA. And you continue to report it on my credit. I will find it necessary to ( Sue you for actual damages and defamation of my character. According to FCRA regulations, I may sue you in any qualified state or federal court. 
including a small claims court in my area. This is my warning. I demand you to delete these items at once.

Complaint narrative:
Thank you for the response to my Demand Letter which had 2 parts : Part 1 - was to get affirmation from XXXX about non-foreclose action on my property. I received the answer saying that XXXX is not seeking to foreclose on my property. 

Part 2 - was to get XXXX release through " Quiet Title '' Acrtion. XXXX indicated that it was helpful that an amicable resolution of the debt can be reached if I decide to file Quiet Title Lawsuit. 

I left voice mail for the Corporate counsel XXXX XXXX by calling XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX indicating my desire to not to spend my $ in legal lawsuit expenses. I realize that there was no need for XXXX to spend $ in legal expenses as well. So lets find a common ground to settle this dispute. 

The most inexpensive route will be that neither I nor XXXX involve lawyers. If that's the case I would present 2 scenerios : 1st scenerio : I let the debt run its own course since XXXX is not foreclosing, and I have nothing to loose. I donot need to dispute acceleration and/or ttermination. I can myself file quiet title in XX/XX/XXXX, under XXXX XXXX Court will order XXXX release. 

2nd scenerio : We setlle this debt ASAP for a reasonable sum that I can afford. In XXXX XXXX tried to settle the debt for {$65000.00} on behalf of XXXX AND I OFFERED {$30000.00}. I am unaware how much XXXX paid to acquire the debt from XXXX. This is a reasonable & rationale offer. Even though I will have financial difficulty but I will arrange {$30000.00} through my family and resolve this longstanding issue. 

SINCE THERE IS NON-FORECLOSURE ACTION GOING FORWARD AND IF YOU DONOT ACCEPT THIS OFFER, AFTER XX/XX/XXXX XXXX WILL GET NOTHING ON THIS DEBT. 

THANK YOU
