Product: Debt collection — I do not know
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was result of identity theft
Company: Resurgent Capital Services L.P.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
I disputed a negative account listed by Resurgent Capital Services ( on behalf of LVNV Funding ) and requested proper validation. In response, I received a generic system-generated letter that did not include a copy of the original signed agreement, no itemized accounting, and no proof of chain of assignment from the original creditor. Un

der 15 U.S.C. 1692g, they are required to validate the debt before continuing collection or credit reporting. Despite this, they continue to report the account on my credit report. This violates both the FDCPA and FCRA. I am requesting the CFPB/FTC investigate this matter and take appropriate regulatory action.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to formally request the removal of a fraudulent credit inquiry from my credit report. Upon reviewing my credit report, I identified an inquiry that was not authorized by me and appears to be the result of fraudulent activity. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Specifically, Section 604 ( a ), a credit inquiry can only be made with my explicit consent or as part of a transaction or application that I initiated. Since this inquiry does not meet these criteria, it is clear that it was made without my authorization and is therefore fraudulent.
