This complaint serves as a formal follow-up to the complaint I submitted last month regarding the unauthorized and fraudulent use of my Social Security number and personal identifying information. This correspondence reiterates and reinforces my demand for the immediate removal of all accounts that were fraudulently opened in my name. 

These accounts were not authorized, opened, or consented to by me and are not reflective of any legitimate financial activity. Their continued presence on my credit report is both inaccurate and damaging.

You are obligated to comply with this request.

15 U.S. Code 1692j : Misrepresenting a debt or furnishing deceptive forms is a direct violation of federal law.

Demand for Immediate Action : Let me be absolutely clear : These accounts are fraudulent.

Your continued reporting of them is reckless and potentially unlawful.

Any collection efforts tied to these accounts must cease and desist without delay.
