Enclosed are my prior letters to Equifax, XXXX, and TransUnion, as well as my FTC Identity Theft Report ( Report Number : XXXX ), which serves as proof of the fraudulent nature of these accounts. 
Violations of Consumer Protection Laws These credit reporting agencies and furnishers have failed to comply with federal laws designed to protect consumers, including but not limited to : Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) Violations : 15 U.S.C. 1681i Failure to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation and correct inaccurate information.

Complaint narrative:
The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( 15 U.S. Code 1681 ) says ( 1 ) The banking system is dependent upon fair and accurate credit reporting. Inaccurate credit reports directly impair the efficiency of the banking system, and unfair credit reporting methods undermine the public confidence which is essential to the continued functioning of the banking system.

So whenever there is a violation under the FCRA, it impairs the efficiency of the banking system. This is a violation of my privacy with my consumer report, since I control what is listed and what is not. In the event that any accounts are reported without my written consent, that is considered identity theft.

This is a violation of both 15 U.S. Code 1681b ( 2 ) and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. This leads way to civil liability against the credit reporting agency for negligent and willful noncompliance under 15 U.S. Code 1681n, which allows for {$1000.00} per violation, for account listed without my expressed written consent.

Complaint narrative:
Hello, I am contacting Experians fraud department regarding a late payment that is being reported on my Experian credit file but is not being reported by XXXX  or XXXX  for the same account and time frame. This is a clear indicator of inconsistent and potentially inaccurate data reporting, which violates the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), specifically 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) the requirement to maintain maximum possible accuracy of consumer credit information. 

I have disputed this information multiple times, yet it continues to be verified without Experian providing any documentary evidence from the original creditor showing that the late payment is accurate. This repeated verification without proof is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ), which requires a reasonable reinvestigation. 

Since the other XXXX major credit reporting agencies do not report this alleged late payment, it is evident that the data being reported by Experian is not consistent or verifiable across sources. I am requesting the immediate removal of this late payment from my file to prevent further harm to my credit profile. 

If this is not resolved promptly, I will be forced to escalate the matter with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) and the State Attorney Generals Office, as this constitutes the reporting of inaccurate information and failure to conduct a proper investigation. 

Please confirm in writing when the inaccurate late payment has been deleted.
