State: TX

Complaint narrative:
My XXXX and I attended a complimentary dinner and presentation from this company. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX We were not aware of any additional agreements. Money was requested and denied because neither of us had credit cards which was required by this company. 
We were later contacted several times asking if we received a card in the mail from XXXX XXXX, after returning from our family vacation. ( Which we do yearly without travel agent assistance ) It is my understanding that this company provides travel agent assistance and we made it clear we were not interested in their services. 
I contacted XXXX XXXX directly in reference to the card situation XXXX XXXX  were referring to. I stated that I had not requested the card. XXXX XXXX researched and denied XXXXXXXX XXXX any funds. Apparently, They were well aware of this scheme. 
I have ask XXXX XXXX Representatives for proof of credit card ( money ) denial from XXXX XXXX due to fraudulently requesting money on behalf of their company in regards to both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. As well as, to please stop contacting me via phone, text, and emails. These communications were completely out of line and threatening to report us to the credit bureau. I honestly didn't take it that seriously because I knew that we hadn't made any financial agreement with them. Nevertheless, they seem to be able to find some sort of loophole to tie individuals to their company services after attending these presentations. 
Honestly, I don't understand how XXXX XXXX was able to prove and deny charges from this company credit agencies weren't able to hold these people accountable with more resources to find exactly how their scamming individuals without any repercussions. 
Let me be clear, I will not stop fighting this company in order to clear mine and my daughters name and credit for something that has been fraudulently obtained. 
Fortunately, after filing a dispute several times with all three credit agencies I have finally gotten XXXX to delete after properly reinvestigating many times. 
My biggest request has been and will continue to be that this company is thoroughly investigated and properly reprimanded. 
Sadly, It doesn't take much to simply XXXX and see that I am not the only person that has gone through this horrible experience. 
The difference is I will not stop because this has affected me and my daughter extremely mentally and financially!

Finding unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries, and false personal information made or reported without my knowledge or agreement completely stunned and grieved me.

The creditors must submit pertinent application materials, show proof of express authority for each query, and give comprehensive details about each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and the kinds of credit products involved. To see what I'm complaining about, please refer to the attached file!

XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, California XXXX XX/XX/XXXX Experian Dispute Department XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX Subject : Notice of Intent to File Lawsuit for Continued Reporting of Fraudulent XXXXXXXX XXXX Account Dear Experian Dispute Department, This letter serves as formal notice of my intent to file a lawsuit against Experian for willful and negligent violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) [ 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq. ] due to your continued reporting of a fraudulent XXXXXXXX XXXX credit card account on my credit file. Despite submitting a Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Report, a police report, and multiple dispute requests, you have failed to remove this fraudulent account, causing significant financial and reputational harm. 
Details of the Fraudulent Account : * Creditor Name : XXXXXXXX XXXX  * Account Number XXXX * Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX I have provided sufficient documentation under FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to block fraudulent accounts when a consumer provides an identity theft report. You have failed to comply with this obligation and have instead continued to report inaccurate and damaging information.

Due to your willful noncompliance, I am prepared to file a lawsuit against Experian in California Federal Court for the following violations : 1. Failure to block fraudulent information as required by FCRA 605B.

2. Failure to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation as required by FCRA 611.

3. Continuing to report inaccurate information in violation of FCRA 623.

I demand that Experian : 1. Immediately and permanently remove the fraudulent XXXX XXXX account from my credit report. 
2. Provide written confirmation that this account has been deleted from my file.

3. Cease and desist from any further reporting of this fraudulent account to lenders, creditors, or other third parties.

If I do not receive written confirmation of full compliance within 15 days, I will proceed with legal action seeking statutory damages, actual damages, punitive damages, and attorneys fees as permitted under FCRA 616 and 617. Additionally, I will file complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ), and my state Attorney Generals office regarding Experians continued failure to comply with federal law. 
This is your final opportunity to resolve this matter before legal action is taken. Please respond in writing to confirm compliance by XX/XX/XXXX Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
