Complaint narrative:
I am distressed that you have included the information below in my credit profile and that you have failed to maintain reasonable procedures in your operations to assure maximum possible accuracy in the credit reports you publish. Credit reporting laws ensure that bureaus report only 100 % accurate credit information. Every step must be taken to assure the information reported is completely accurate and correct. The following information therefore needs to be re-investigated. 
According to the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Section 609 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), you are required by federal law to verify, through the physical verification of the original signed consumer contract, any and all accounts that you post on a credit report. Otherwise anyone paying for your reporting services could fax, mail, or email in a fraudulent account. 

This account is not mine and was opened using my personal identification without my consent. When any furnisher of information is notified pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 605B that a debt has resulted from identity theft, the furnisher may not sell, transfer, or place for collection the debt except in certain limited circumstances. Section 615 ( f ). Ive never given this company permission to contact me which according to the FCRA is also against federal laws. I have asked numerous times for this company to stop furnishing false information to the CRAs and also for them to stop contacting me. My next step will be to file suit. 
I demand to see verifiable proof ( i.e. : an original consumer contract with my signature on it ) that you have on file for the account listed below. 
Your failure to positively verify has hurt my ability to obtain credit. Under the FCRA unverifiable accounts must be removed and if you are unable to provide me a copy of verifiable proof, you must remove the account listed below. 
I demand that the following account ( s ) be verified or removed immediately : JEFFERSON CAPITAL SYSTEM XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Reason For Dispute : Fraudulent Account, Account Not Mine, Unauthorized, Identity Theft

Company: U.S. BANCORP
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I received an alert from one of my credit card companies, US Bank, concerning my Master Card account. There were multiply charges from, XXXX, dated XXXX in the same amount of {$25.00}, and also more multiply charges for different amounts on XXXX, the bank ask that I confirm these charges if they were authorized by me. I called customer service to advise them these charges were not authorized. The representative filled out a dispute form and stated I would receive a " temporary '' credit to my account pending their investigation. I was also told my account would be closed and a new card with a different account number would be issued to me. I ask the representative if he can place an alert to flag my account if any more charges were made by XXXX, but I was told no, my only option is a new card. 
This is troubling to me because this is the third time my account was compromised. This is an inconvenience to me because it was an online purchase made in XXXX for {$9.00} at XXXX ( I do a lot of online purchasing ). Apparently some third party captured my card number and will continue to make unauthorized purchases even though I receive a new account number.
