Product: Credit reporting or other personal consumer reports — Credit reporting
Issue: Improper use of your report — Reporting company used your report improperly
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: FL

Complaint narrative:
During the period I was a victim of human XXXX, fraudulent financial activity was conducted using my personal information without my knowledge or consent. This resulted in several erroneous accounts, late payments, and inquiries appearing on my credit report. 

For example, an account with XXXX XXXX was opened fraudulently, leading to financial obligations that I did not authorize or initiate. Similarly, XXXX added a utility-related account that I had no involvement with. Additionally, a late payment reported by XXXX XXXX  was an isolated incident caused by circumstances beyond my control during this period. 

Unauthorized credit inquiries, such as one from XXXX XXXX dated XX/XX/year>, further indicate misuse of my personal information. Numerous inaccuracies in my personal information, such as incorrect aliases and employer names, were also added to my credit report. 

Since discovering these issues, I have provided documentation to credit reporting agencies, including police reports and affidavits, to demonstrate that these accounts and entries were the result of financial exploitation. Despite these efforts, the inaccuracies remain unresolved. 

I request a thorough investigation into these matters and the removal of all fraudulent and inaccurate entries from my credit report.

Company: NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION
State: GA

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to file a formal complaint against Navy Federal Credit Union for their failure to issue Form 1099-C ( Cancellation of Debt ) for a charged-off debt and for their inaccurate reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus.

I have an account with Navy Federal Credit Union. According to the provisions of 26 U.S. Code 61 ( a ) ( 12 ) of the Internal Revenue Code, any canceled debt of {$600.00} or more is considered taxable income and must be reported by the creditor on Form 1099-C. To date, Navy Federal Credit Union has not provided me with the required Form 1099-C for the charged-off debt on my account.

This form is critical for my tax reporting, as I am required by the IRS to report canceled debt as income. Failure to provide the 1099-C form not only complicates my tax filing but may also constitute non-compliance with federal regulations. 

Additionally, I am concerned about the accuracy of Navy Federal Credit Union 's reporting of this debt to the credit bureaus. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), creditors are prohibited from reporting false or misleading information to the credit bureaus, including improperly reporting a canceled debt as income. Specifically, 15 U.S. Code 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ) requires that any information reported to the credit bureaus be accurate, including ensuring that canceled debts are reported properly to the IRS, not to the credit bureaus as income.

I request that the CFPB investigate Navy Federal Credit Unions failure to issue the required Form 1099-C and its inaccurate credit reporting practices. I would appreciate the CFPBs assistance in ensuring that Navy Federal Credit Union complies with its obligations under the tax code and credit reporting laws.

I would greatly appreciate it if the CFPB could look into this matter and assist me in resolving the issues with Navy Federal Credit Union.
