Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: BANK OF AMERICA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
State: IL

Complaint narrative:
These perpetrators created fraudulent identity documents such as a fake ID and other fake documents to secure a loan in my name and make payments on the loan accounts. My identity has been stolen and compromised ; this is the 6th notice I have sent this company with all supporting evidence and documentation. I will be suing for assisting and adding in the opening account, and furnishing fraudulent data on my consumer credit report, this company did not take the proper steps to help protect my consumer report and properly investigate this matter.

Under the FCRA, 15 U.S. Code 1681b, consumer reporting agencies may furnish a consumer report only under specific circumstances, such as with the consumers written consent or in connection with a credit transaction initiated by the consumer. I did not provide my consent for the release or sharing of my personal information related to these accounts, nor did I initiate any credit transactions with the entities listed.

Furthermore, 15 U.S. Code 1681c requires that consumer reporting agencies ensure the accuracy and privacy of consumer information. The unauthorized disclosure of my information not only violates this statute but also exposes me to potential identity theft and other forms of financial harm.

I request that you take the following actions : 1. **Conduct an immediate investigation** : As required by 15 U.S. Code 1681i, I request that you investigate these unauthorized entries on my credit report.

2. **Remove the disputed entries** : If the investigation finds these entries were indeed unauthorized, they must be promptly removed from my credit report.

3. **Provide written confirmation** : Send me a written confirmation that the unauthorized entries have been removed from my credit report.

Please consider this letter as a formal complaint and take all necessary actions to resolve this matter within the 30-day timeframe stipulated by the FCRA. Failure to do so may result in further legal action to protect my rights.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious matter.

Complaint narrative:
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Improper Credit Reporting by TransUnion, and XXXX Dear CFPB, I am writing to formally lodge a complaint against the credit reporting agencies TransUnion and XXXX for improper credit reporting practices that violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) requirements. The issue pertains to adverse remarks placed on my credit report by XXXX XXXX, which are maliciously recorded and do not meet the legal standards set forth in the FCRA. 

Specifically, my credit report contains the following remarks from XXXX XXXX : " Charged off as bad debt '' " Charged off account. Account closed by credit grantor '' " Account information disputed by consumer, meets FCRA requirements. '' These statements are inaccurate and misleading, as they do not comply with the FCRA 's definition of what can be reported. According to Section 603, Definitions ; rules of construction [ 15 U.S.C. 1681a ] ( 2 ) Exclusions, the term consumer report does not include any report containing information solely as to transactions or experiences between the consumer and the person making the report, except as provided in paragraph ( 3 ).

Per business law, the term " transactions '' is defined as events associated with business dealings conducted between two or more parties that involve the formation and performance of an obligation or contract. A " charge-off '' is a transaction related to a contractual obligation between myself, the consumer, and XXXX XXXX . Therefore, reporting this information is a violation of the FCRA, as it pertains solely to the " transactional '' relationship between myself and XXXX XXXX and should not be included in my consumer report.

I believe that this erroneous reporting is not only a breach of my rights under the FCRA but also has caused unjust harm to my creditworthiness. I respectfully request that the CFPB investigate this matter thoroughly. I also ask that the credit reporting agencies remove these adverse remarks from my credit report in a timely manner to correct these inaccuracies.

The inaccurate information has negatively impacted my credit score and my ability to secure credit on fair terms. Immediate action to resolve this matter would be appreciated.

Thank you for your attention to this complaint. I look forward to a prompt response and resolution.

Complaint narrative:
I was thinking about moving in the near future so I requested my renting history from Rent Bureau Experian. I open the mail today and I received my report which is three pages but also someone elses report four pages long with the name of XXXX XXXX based out of Georgia, I do not believe that this is related to me in anyway as a mixed file. Clearly an error with someone who stuffed this envelope when they mailed it to me. Im thinking about reaching out to XXXX XXXX since you gave out his personal information to me. I can proof this by showing page 3 of my report is the same as page 4 on his. I feel as though that your company has been sharing my information with other people due to envelope stuffing being incorrect. Possibly contacting a Lawyer about this.

HOW MUCH DOCUMENTATION does it take to get SOMEONE to REALLY DO SOMETHING?? LOOK at the attachments! THIS IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! You asked for Documentation and I have given it.
