Complaint narrative:
In connection to CFPB complaint # : XXXX. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX, a federally protected consumer, and I am making this complaint against XXXX, XXXX, and Equifax for engaging in unlawful extortion means by knowingly furnishing false and misleading information while having reasonable cause to believe the information is inaccurate. 

I have reason to believe this was done to coerce me to make payments of an alleged debt without proof of claim. I am aware that nothing under the Fair Credit Reporting Act REQUIRES a financial institution to furnish negative information to a consumer reporting agency. I DID NOT and I DO NOT consent to any negative information being disclosed to nonaffiliated third parties without my lawful authority. 

XXXX XXXX and the Consumer Reporting Agencies involved have used my nonpublic personal information without my lawful authority to bring harm to me and my financial reputation. XXXX XXXX  along with the help of the consumer reporting agencies are knowingly and willingly committing aggravated identity theft to collect on an extension of credit and punish me for nonrepayment thereof. This is a violation of 18 U.S. Code 1028A and 18 U.S. Code 894 and everyone involved shall be held criminally liable for engaging in racketeering activity.

My right to privacy and my right to know where and how to direct the disclosure of my nonpublic information in accordance with 15 U.S. Code 6801 ( a ) of the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act, has been violated I am aware that not excluding transactions between, I, the consumer, and the creditor is a violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681a ( 2 ) ( A ) ( i ). The consumer reporting agencies were not exercising their grave responsibility in respect to impartiality when furnishing this false and misleading information to my consumer report. Reasonable procedures were not taken to insure the accuracy of the information given by XXXX XXXX before furnishing it. This shows that the consumer reporting agencies have shown bias towards me because I never gave my lawful authority for any consumer reporting agency or XXXX XXXX to furnish any late payments to my consumer report. It is my belief that due to XXXX XXXX business relationship with the consumer reporting agencies, ( such as Equifax, XXXX, XXXX ), they parrot any information given to them as a means of coercing consumers to pay extra fees for debts that they allegedly owe. 

I have attempted to rectify this matter multiple times but due to the mutually beneficially business relationship XXXX XXXX has with the consumer reporting agencies, I have reason to believe they are engaging in racketeering activity. Multiple verified responses has proven that the consumer reporting agencies arent being impartial when it comes to respecting my right to privacy. Their conspiracy against my rights is affecting my ability to operate in commerce. 

This is my last and final attempt to address this matter before escalating this matter to a United States District Court and insuring that everyone involved in this conspiracy is brought up on charges.
