Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered that a credit card account was opened under my name without my authorization, and I believe I have become a victim of identity theft. 

The unauthorized credit card account was opened on XX/XX/2019 and I have attached any supporting documents I possess to substantiate my claim. The account details, including the card number, account holder 's name, and any other relevant information, were obtained fraudulently. As a victim of this crime, I am deeply concerned about the potential negative impact on my credit history and overall financial well-being. 

I have taken immediate steps to mitigate the damages caused by this incident. Firstly, I have contacted the credit reporting agencies, namely XXXX, XXXX, and TransUnion, to place a fraud alert on my credit report. 

I kindly request your full cooperation and support in investigating this matter promptly. I would appreciate if you could initiate an immediate investigation into the unauthorized credit card account opened in my name. I understand that it might take some time to resolve this issue completely, but I trust in your expertise and commitment to ensuring a fair and just resolution. 

I am prepared to provide any further documentation or evidence that may aid in your investigation. Please inform me of any additional information or steps required from my end to proceed with the resolution process effectively. 

Furthermore, I kindly request that you remove the unauthorized credit card account immediately to prevent further fraudulent activity and to protect both myself and your institution from any financial liabilities associated with this incident. 

I emphasize the urgency of addressing this matter promptly, as the longer it remains unresolved, the greater the potential harm to my personal and financial well-being. I am hopeful that, with your assistance and expertise, we can swiftly resolve this case and ensure that justice is served.

Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: Synovus Bank
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
First Progress did not furnish me with a Form 1099-C after an alleged debts of {$150.00} was charged-off from credit accounts in my name. It is also to my understanding that once a creditor charges-off an account, that they receive a tax deduction for the charge-off amount when they file their taxes. That in turn converts the amount owed from an alleged debt, into earned income, which has fraudulently been reported to the consumer reporting agencies as a charge-offs, and it misrepresents the amount charged off as alleged debt owed, instead of earned income, which is being fraudulently reported to the credit reporting agencies. Not only does First Progress have it listed on my reports as charged-off, but with the received tax deductions, this is considered tax fraud according to the IRS.

Company: VW Credit
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
Hello, On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a certified check for the payoff of my leased vehicle with Audi Financial Services and an additional certified check for expedited shipping to have my title sent back quicker. It was sent overnight and Audi received it on XX/XX/XXXX. I sent 2 messages to Audi using their online portal ( 1 to tell them I sent everything to include my tracking number to them and the 2nd after a week or so of no update on my account ). After XX/XX/XXXX, they showed my payment as late and I decided to call in. Upon calling in I was told to wait another week. I waited a week, and sent yet another message using their online portal and received no response. I called in again and spoke to someone who said that Audi is severely behind on sending customer 's their titles, but he was able to " post '' the payment to my account to stop it from showing late and stopping it from behind reported as late to the credit bureaus. After 2 more weeks, I called in again as there was no update and this representative said there was nothing he can do. It's now been basically a month since I've sent everything to Audi Financial Services, they have my money, they have my car 's title illegally, and I can't do anything on my end with my vehicle ( sell it, register it, title it, etc. ). I've now resorted to emailing several executives with AudiUSA to try and get their attention and I'm now seeking assistance with consumer reporting to help me get my cars title.

Company: Westlake Services, LLC
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
In XX/XX/2023 I received and email from a debt collection agency, Westlake Portfolio Management LLC stating they had my loan that was with XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had contacted the company several times only to receive a different story each time. I sent a letter of Validation of Debt multiple times to be either ignored or told they never received the letter yet stated they knew about it. I asked why my account was with a debt collection since I was never late nor behind on my payments and could not receive an answer. I asked for the judgment stating my account was to be with a debt collection company as well as validation they are even legally allowed to collect in the state of Georgia and both questions were ignored. I am not refusing to pay said debt once validation is made but WestLake Portfolio Management LLC is refusing to acknowledge the Validation of Debt letter and is taking on late fees and reporting negatively on my credit report.
