Complaint narrative:
I have unauthorized inquiries on my consumer report. I didnt give these companies permission to check my credit. I dont know who gave them permission.I went to a car dealership with my own approval. They were informed that I had my own funding and i supplied them with my own approval letter. None of the listed companies had permissible purpose to check my reports. 

These are fraudulent. Also i have credit card inquiries that i did not authorize.

Company: Paypal Holdings, Inc

Complaint narrative:
I have ongoing complaints with VENMO, I have been trying for three years now to collect funds that they said would only take 180 days to get a resolution for. The first complaint I submitted here they responded to, someone called and said a check will arrive within 2-4 weeks. After 4 weeks, I was told another 4 weeks. Since XX/XX/XXXX, it has now been 3 months and I have yet to receive my check and also I have deducted the amount from the balance for the check, but no no one is responding to the requests, and phone reps keep saying " Someone '' will return my call but its been over 3 years and 6 months and I have not received a dime. One the last complaint to you all, the said company responded to say " its not that company, wrong company ''. Venmo which is owned by Paypal has kept my funds after being told they are sending out a check. For whatever reason they didn't just transfer my funds to my bank that has been there for years. A small social security check was deposited in the amount of {$670.00} in to my account. After sending the birth certificates, social security cards, ID, and bank statements, giving them all my info they still keep my funds for what they said was 180 days, which has now been almost 4 years. They sent a statement showing the remainder of my {$6700.00} check being sent to me but there has been nothing in my USPS informed delivery. Now no one is answering my online requests no giving me a resolution on the phone.

Issue: Managing an account — Deposits and withdrawals
Company: FIFTH THIRD FINANCIAL CORPORATION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I have been the victim of theft by a contractor, XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX, who took my deposit of ~ {$60000.00} and did not perform any work. The company manager, XXXX XXXX XXXX, cashed my checks into his company 's 5/3 Bank checking account ( # XXXX ). The account is being used for theft by deception and money laundering. I have spoken with multiple other families who are also filing complaints. The total stolen between the 7 families have been around 500k. I have contacted 5/3 Bank, but we were told that there is nothing that 5/3 Bank can do. They disconnected the call when I asked if they could at least freeze the checking account to prevent these criminals from accessing it.

Product: Debt collection — Medical debt
Issue: False statements or representation — Attempted to collect wrong amount
Company: R & B Corporation of Virginia
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/2023 I received a phone call and subsequent voice message from Credit Control Corporation in an attempt to collect a debt. Given that they are a local company that I have had issues with in the past ( see complaint ID XXXX ), I know from my personal knowledge and experience that this company specializes in collecting medical debt. At the present time, the only balance that may be owed to a healthcare organization is for a bill in the amount of {$4800.00} that may be owed to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ). This debt is only supposed because it is presently being reviewed for financial assistance by XXXX. Attached is the current communication from XXXX regarding this matter and it clearly shows that the application is in " Pending '' status and that the last correspondence was on XX/XX/2023 ( See Attachment # XXXX ). That correspondence ( See Attachment # 2 ) is requesting bank statements from the past three months, which is only necessary because the system owned by XXXX does not allow such a sizeable upload, but I did upload the first several pages that showed balances, and from that they were able to verify the information ( See Attachment # 3 and # 4 ) yet will not allow my application to move forward. It does not make logical sense that XXXX would sell a debt to Credit Control Corporation that is still in a pending state, and whose final amount due has not been decided as of this date. Furthermore, no communication was given to me by XXXX that it would be sent to a debt collector ( See Attachments # 5 and # 6 ) and no outreach was done by XXXX to establish a payment plan. Therefore I must conclude that XXXX sold an invalid debt to Credit Control Corporation possibly to avoid their fiduciary responsibilities as a non-profit organization with a revenue of {$50.00} XXXX. Credit Control Corporation assisted XXXX in their effort by attempting to collect a debt that was invalid, was not settled with regard to final amount due, and that was not owned by Credit Control Corporation at the time the aforementioned phone call was made.
