You have reported inaccurate and unauthorized accounts on my credit report, which is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681i ) requiring a proper reinvestigation of disputed items, and 1681e ( b ), which mandates maximum possible accuracy.

Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally dispute fraudulent information listed on my credit report, pursuant to my rights under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, and to request the immediate block and removal of this information. For evidence, I have attached a copy of my FTC Identity Theft Report ( FTC Report Number : XXXX ). 
As stipulated by 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, upon the filing of an identity theft report, consumer reporting agencies are required to block any information identified by the consumer as stemming from the theft within four ( 4 ) business days.

The following items on my report are a direct result of identity theft and must be blocked : XXXX XXXX  - XXXX In compliance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I respectfully request that these accounts be immediately frozen on my credit report. This block must remain in effect for a period of no less than one year, subject to extension, and during this time, no information related to these fraudulent accounts may be reported.

I have previously contacted the bureau on multiple occasions regarding these accounts, yet the matter remains unresolved. The continued presence of these inaccurate items is causing significant personal and financial hardship by obstructing my ability to secure financing for a home and other essential financial tools. Furthermore, these specific accounts have already been removed by other major credit bureaus after failing verification, which underscores the inaccuracy of their reporting. 
In accordance with my rights, I also requested verification documents and contract copies from the furnishing companies for these accounts. After the legally permissible period has elapsed ( over 60 days ), I have received no response. Given the lack of verification and their fraudulent nature, I respectfully urge you to facilitate the immediate and permanent removal of these accounts from my credit file.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system. So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of TILA US Code 1666B since I was never late. " I recently reviewed my consumer report and noticed an incorrect late payment record. I have always maintained timely payments on this account. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act ( FCBA ) and the Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ), creditors are required to accurately report consumer transactions and provide a mechanism for correcting errors in a timely manner. Please conduct an investigation into this matter, and if you can not provide documentary evidence of these supposed late payments, I demand these payments to be updated to on time as they should be as I was NEVER late. I expect these updates to be made promptly, in compliance with the law. ''

Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.
