Complaint narrative:
This complaint has been filed to request, under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), that Experian block the information appearing on my consumer credit report resulting from identity theft and fraud within four business days of receiving this complaint.

I am a victim of XXXX, and the following account information, which appears on my Experian credit report, is a result of identity theft and fraud that occurred during this period of XXXX  : XXXX BANK Account Number : XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/2016 I do not recognize this account as reported. They were not opened, made, or initiated by me and are the result of identity theft and fraud. Per Experian 's request, I have attached the following documents as proof that the aforementioned account is fraudulent and a result of my XXXX  experience : Official Police Report FCRA Section 605C Self-Attestation Form Notarized Identity Theft Affidavit Notarized FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # XXXX Additionally, I have also provided results and proof from other credit bureaus that have removed this fraudulent account from my credit reports based on the same documentation provided, without any issues. 

You previously deleted XXXX BANK Account Number : XXXX, and Experian is in violation of FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ( 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) ( 5 ) ( B ) ) regarding the re-insertion of previously deleted material : 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ( B ) ( ii ) mandates that I should have been notified in writing within five business days of the reinsertion. I received no such notice.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ( B ) ( iii ) requires that Experian provide the business name and address of the furnisher of information and their contact details, which were not provided to me.

15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ) ( B ) ( i ) prohibits the reinsertion of deleted information unless the furnisher certifies the accuracy of the information. There is no indication that this requirement was fulfilled because this account is a result of identity theft. 
These documents confirm my identity and substantiate that these accounts were created without my knowledge or consent. I am requesting immediate action to block and remove this account from my Experian consumer credit report.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of several unauthorized accounts and inquiries from my credit report. These accounts and inquiries are not associated with me, and I did not authorize their inclusion on my report. The presence of these inaccuracies is the result of a data breach that has adversely affected my credit standing, leading to a significant drop in my FICO score. 

Upon a thorough review of my credit report, I identified multiple accounts and inquiries that I do not recognize or authorize. These inaccuracies have led to negative remarks on my credit report, which are unjustly damaging my credit score and financial reputation.

The inclusion of these unauthorized accounts and inquiries has caused considerable stress and concern regarding my financial well-being. It is imperative that my credit report accurately reflects my financial history and activities. Therefore, I request an immediate investigation into these inaccuracies and the prompt removal of all unauthorized accounts and inquiries.
