They used my SSN to open the account sometime around XX/XX/2022 in XXXX Illinois. By XXXX, {$2900.00} was owned on the account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email alert that at Potentially Negative- Major Derogatory appeared on my credit report. I immediately disputed it on XXXX, and I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to inform them that it was fraudulently opened under my name and SSN. They said it was actually above {$3000.00} at this point. Then I called XXXX and we decided to close the dispute and report it as fraud. I received a letter from the collection agency on XX/XX/XXXX along with some of the bills that were sent to the Illinois address. I wasn't quite sure what they said in the letter. So, I contacted them again and they said we were all good. It seems like XXXX agrees. I continue to see the collection on my credit report. I keep disputing that hoping to have it removed. It was fraud but yet it continues to hurt my credit rating. Is there any way to have it removed?
