I am a victim of identity theft, and I did not make [ this/these ] charge ( s ).

I also request that you cease reporting the inaccurate information to all of the nationwide credit reporting agencies ( CRAs ) to which you provided it. 
Enclosed is a copy of my Identity Theft Report supporting my position, and a copy of my credit report showing the fraudulent items related to your company that are the result of identity theft. [ Consumers should redact information that is unrelated to the dispute with this company. ] Also enclosed is a copy of the Notice to Furnishers issued by the Federal Trade Commission, which details your responsibilities under the Fair Credit Reporting Act as an information furnisher to CRAs. The Notice also specifies your responsibilities when you receive notice from a CRA, under section 605B of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, that information you provided to the CRA may be the result of identity theft. Those responsibilities include ceasing to provide the inaccurate information to any CRAs, and ensuring that you do not attempt to sell or transfer the fraudulent debts to another party for collection. 
Please investigate this matter and send me a written explanation of your findings and actions. 

Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Lastly. 

Within four business days after receiving your request, the credit reporting company must block that information from your credit report. 

Is this not the law? So why do you keep returning this account validated by the same company accused of fraud? 

I ask the CFPB to use their enforcement authority to resolve this issue and do a thorough investigation into this matter. 

A central part our mission is to stand up for consumers and make sure they are treated fairly in the financial marketplace. One way we do this is by enforcing federal consumer financial laws and holding financial service providers accountable for their actions. 

Enclosures : passport, state issued ID, utility bill with current address and more proof.

Company public response: Company has responded to the consumer and the CFPB and chooses not to provide a public response
Company response to consumer: Closed with non-monetary relief
