Company: Uplift, Inc
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I've noticed 5 entries indicating a charge-off, which typically signifies a discharged debt for which you've claimed a tax write-off. Following a discussion with the IRS, it came to my attention that reporting such information on my credit report with the intent of collection or maintaining a charged-off status is deemed illegal, constituting tax fraud. Please be informed that the accounts in question are all paid off. Uplift is also furnishing inconsistent information between all 3 CRA 's when all information should be the same. There is also a duplicate account which I will list below. 

I insist on the immediate removal of the accounts from my credit report, along with the provision of a 1099-C form for auditing purposes to ensure compliance with tax regulations. This reporting discrepancy appears to be a violation of the FCRA specifically 15 USC 1681eb, as the information reported is not entirely accurate. 

The IRS has advised me to submit a Form 3949-A to report what appears to be illegal tax violations committed by your company. I'd like to emphasize that pursuing legal action is a course of action I'd prefer to avoid. Nonetheless, any violation of the FCRA by a corporation entitles the consumer to seek actual damages and monetary compensation, as outlined by the applicable U.S. Code. 

I trust that your CEO or VP would prefer to address this matter promptly and amicably to avoid potential legal consequences. Please see the attached credit report and remove the following accounts from my credit report within 7 days : UPLIFT, INC. XXXX, UPLIFT, INC. XXXX ( DUPLICATE ACCOUNT ), UPLIFT, INCXXXX XXXX, UPLIFT, INC. XXXX

Company: The Law Offices of Jennifer McCoy, PC
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
During covid XXXX I reviewed my credit report and noticed that a collection account was opened by the Law Office of JMCC . 

I noticed this and contacted their office to invoke my CFPB rights as a consumer specifically stating code 15 USC 1692e. ( 3 ). This collection company stated they are in an attorney 's office and that is a direct violation of code 15 USC 1692e. ( 3 ). This company has incomplete records for an account that I was never contracted to pay.

This company also has violated my individual privacy. I would like to invoke my rights under code 15 USC 1692b this company has violated my rights to privacy by purchasing my personal information, contacting me, and distributing my personal information through company-owned computers and databases. My location information was also used to state via telephone stating I " owe a debt ''.

This has hindered my ability to obtain housing during the COVID crisis and allowed me to be homeless during this time. These are over 3 violations of the current CFPB code. As a consumer, I would like the immediate removal of this account from all of my credit reports.
