Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: NJ

Complaint narrative:
After sending an initial dispute letter to Equifax and the creditor reporting this alleged debt, they failed to provide me with any documentation that verifies this alleged debt. They responded verified but how can a debt belong to me if me and the creditor reporting this account never had any contracts or agreements? Why can't they provide any receipts? The unlawfully reporting account is negatively impacting my credit score. I asked the creditor to cease all communications with me in which by definition, reporting this account to my consumer report is a form of communication. They're still contacting me nonstop after asking them to stop contacting me unless they're providing me any documentation asked. I never gave them the consent to obtain my personal information nor did I give them consent. to report anything to my consumer report. I believe that by Equifax not properly sending me the documentation asked is a failure to be compliant with the laws that they agreed to abide by. Included in my complaint is a copy of my initial dispute letter and a new dispute letter asking for a reinvestigation. Violations committed by Equifax and the creditor reporting this account : 15 U.S. Code 1692g - Validation of debts, 15 U.S. Code 1692c - Communication in connection with debt collection, 15 U.S. Code 1692e - False or misleading representations.

Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Information belongs to someone else
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: GA

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 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.
