Complaint narrative:
Despite my previous 4 written requests, the unverified items listed below still remain on my credit report in violation of Federal Law. They stated in their responses to my 4 dispute letters that they have verified that the items listed are accurate but they failed to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify these accounts as per my request. The fact that they have ignored my request to send me copies of the documents that they used to verify the disputed accounts is evidence that they can not and did not verify any of the disputed accounts like they said they did. Their failure to delete the disputed accounts that they can not verify after two written requests is also evidence of their willful disregard of Federal Law.

However, they stated everything was complete and accurate. But how is that possible if the open date, date of last activity and much more is incorrect. According to 15 USC 1681i ( 5 ), they are supposed to modify accounts that aren't reporting correctly.

Complaint narrative:
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to dispute and request the immediate removal of fraudulent accounts from my credit report. I have recently become aware of unauthorized accounts on my credit report, and I insist on the aggressive deletion of these accounts without any further delay. I was the victim & I'm not sure why the CRA is not complying with the law. The other bureaus have followed suit. Im very confused why this one seems to ignore my requests. 

The fraudulent accounts in question are as follows : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 
XXXX XXXX XXXX FRAUD, PLEASE DELETE!!!! 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report. The presence of these fraudulent accounts is not only damaging my creditworthiness but also causing undue stress and hardship. Therefore, I demand the immediate removal of these items from my credit report. 

I expect the credit bureau to conduct a thorough investigation into this matter and provide me with a prompt response. As the victim of identity theft, I urge you to take aggressive action to rectify this situation at the earliest possible date.
