Company: Coinbase, Inc.
State: NV

Complaint narrative:
Multiple charges of 2 towns or coins in amounts of XXXX XXXX and it showing no amount and where it went to. Also an account that is not accessible that show transfers were made. Downloaded the state logs and it does not match the transactions that show. This is Coinbbase and COINTRACKER. The tracker can edit transactions as well. Have informed the company Coinbase that my account was hacked and all they did was tell me to make a new account. Had sent 25 usd to the account a few times and then it was gone. So now the account being used is negative in balance not of my doing. This is frustrating because not only has one company screwed me its multiple. Account statements have disappeared from XXXX with banks and internet financial technology companies. Someone is ripping me off.

Complaint narrative:
This debt collector engaged in abusive, deceptive, and unfair practices of the FDCPA which it prohibits. They furnished this account that we didn't agree upon and I didn't sign an agreement on. A legal contract is signed by two parties and I did not participate in any of it.

I declare under penalty of perjury ( under the laws of the United States, if executed outside of the United States ) that the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. Further, I certify that I am permitted by FEDERAL and STATE LAW to file this dispute. I also understand that knowing and willful misstatements or omissions of material facts constitutes a FEDERAL CRIMINAL VIOLATION punishable under 18 U.S.C. 1001. Additionally, these misstatements are punishable as perjury under 18 U.S.C. 1621. This collection found within my credit report is not related to any transaction that I made. I am alleging that a person or company- without my authorization- used my personal identifying information to apply for goods, services, or money ; and, was successful in creating some accounts.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
I had a vehicle repossessed in XXXX. It was a voluntary surrender- this is not accurately reported. I settled for less than the full amount owed in XXXX of XXXX. My credit report accurately reflects this. It accurately reflected that the account was closed, and no more late payments were added to it throughout the rest of XXXX. Then, suddenly, at the beginning of XXXX in XXXX, it began reporting as late payments, and have done so every single month since. I have called the bank, and I have disputed through the credit bureaus ; the bank is refusing to fix this information. I legally settled my debt, and I do not have any late payments since, as those can not exist on a payment which has been taken care of, yet my reports reflect an additional THIRTEEN late payments beyond when I paid off my debt as agreed with a qualified agent. This is absolutely obliterating my credit score. It also lists all the payments I did make as " unknown. '' So, they are omitting 2 years of positive payments, and adding an additional year of impossible " late payments ''!

Complaint narrative:
Subject : Formal Complaint Regarding Unauthorized Access and Coercive  Collection Practices Dear XXXX, I am writing to express my deep concern and dissatisfaction regarding your recent actions in accessing my non-personal information without consent and attempting to coerce me into paying a debt for which I am not obligated. Your actions not only breach my privacy but may also constitute a violation of identity fraud laws. 

It has come to my attention that XXXX has added an account to my credit report without my authorization. I must emphasize that even in the case of permissible purpose, the consent of the consumer is required, which, in this instance, I have not granted. This egregious breach of privacy demands immediate correction by removing XXXX from my credit report. 

Moreover, I am alarmed by the fact that your company has contacted me without obtaining the necessary consent to do so. I want to make it unequivocally clear that I do not wish to engage in any business dealings with XXXX and I am under no legal obligation to do so. 

In accordance with Texas-specific laws, I refer to the following sections : 1. Texas Finance Code 392.202 : Unauthorized Access to Consumer Information - TSI/940 accessing my non-personal information without consent is a violation of this code, and I demand an immediate cessation of such activities.

2. Texas Finance Code 392.202 : Coercive Collection Practices- Attempting to coerce me into paying a debt I am not obligated to pay constitutes a violation of this code.

Furthermore, the actions taken by TSI/940 may also be in violation of federal laws, including : 1. Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) : - Adding an unauthorized account to my credit report without proper consent is a direct violation of the FCRA.

2. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692c : - Contacting me without my consent is a breach of the FDCPA.

Additionally, I want to bring to your attention the following federal and state consumer laws : 3. Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ), 15 U.S.C. 1693 : - Unauthorized access to my non-personal information may also be in violation of the EFTA.

4. Texas Business and Commerce Code 17.50 : Deceptive Trade Practices- Your coercive collection practices may be considered deceptive trade practices under this code.

I demand that TSI/940 cease and desist all unauthorized collection activities immediately, remove the inaccurate information from my credit report, and confirm this action in writing within 15 days of receiving this letter. Failure to comply with these demands will leave me with no choice but to pursue legal remedies available to me under both state and federal law.

I expect your prompt attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX
