Product: Debt collection — Credit card debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: SYNCHRONY FINANCIAL
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2019 a debt recovery company named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX whose mailing address is : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Virginia, Phone Number XXXX reached out me at the address XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  PA XXXX regarding a debt that I owed from a Paypal Credit Card issues by Synchrony Bank . They called my cell phone number many times and when I finally spoke with them in XXXX, I shared with them that the address they had listed wan NOT and hod NOT been my residence and also I never authorized opening a Paypal Credit card due to my credit being bad and I was workin on repairing my credit.

Later that month, after many calls I requested a copy of the credit crd information and a listing of the charges. Paypal the Credit Card issues would not speak to me because I was not the Primary account holder but the Debt Collection Agency was able t send me the information of the charges and the total debt owed which is {$4600.00} After a few follow up conversations with the Credit issuer PayPal they stated that the name of the Primary Account Holder who at that time was an X-Partner who I never authorized to open an Credit Card Account in my name or any shared line of credit with her. 

This debt is currently listed a in Collection on my credit report lowering my credit rating. Also I no longer have any contact details of the Primary Account holder, who is the person who opened the account without my awareness or permission. 

I find it really appalling that a credit card company and credit issuers would allow any individual to open a credit card or line of credit using a persons names and only notify the person once the debt is in collections.

Complaint narrative:
This is so annoying & frustrating. Ive sent Experian multiple letters that Im the one whos disputing the items that are UNKNOWN to me. In Experians responses that make the claim that have not initiated any disputes on my behalf due to the fraudulent or high risk nature, and the documents I provided have either been confirmed as fraudulent or deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. This is a complete joke. How in the world did they verify these claims? First of all, I know that under FCRA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, I never sent my documentation to anyone else as it deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. Also, according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or Irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under FCRA 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( 1 ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. I need your help! As a consumer, I need to correct my credit file for my credit worthiness, credit standing, or credit capacity to obtain my rights and My Financial Freedom that has been DAMAGE.

Complaint narrative:
I contacted EQUIFAX and XXXX months ago about being a victim of identity theft. I found out months ago about collection accounts in my named. I did not authorize or approve anyone to open any accounts in my name. I was advised by a customer service representative from both bureaus to get a police report for removal. I provided my approved police report with supporting documents and my ID immediately to both credit bureaus. Equifax added more collections to my credit file, dropped my scores and refused to delete or block all fraudulent accounts. XXXX is refusing to block all fraudulent accounts or delete. I provided everything both companies ask for and both are still giving me a hard time after both companies assured me all fraudulent accounts will be deleted once I get an approval from the local authorities.
