I have no knowledge of these accounts. On XXXX XXXX, I filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) under 16 CFR Part 660, specifically 16 CFR 660.2 ( Identity Theft Reporting ), regarding these unauthorized accounts and the misuse of my personal information. These creditors are contacting me concerning accounts I did not open and are sharing my personal information without my consent, in violation of my rights. This constitutes persistent harassment, which is a direct violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692d ( Harassment or abuse ). Furthermore, the three major credit bureaus ( Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion ) are refusing to investigate and dispute these inaccuracies, a direct contradiction of their obligations under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( Procedure in case of disputed accuracy ). Under the FDCPA, specifically the provision prohibiting debt collectors from engaging in any conduct that harasses, oppresses, or abuses individuals in connection with debt collection ( 15 U.S.C. 1692d ), these actions are a clear violation of my rights. Furthermore, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 1028 ( Fraud and related activity in connection with identification documents and information ), I do not owe any debt to these companies. They are also violating my right to privacy under 15 U.S.C. 1681b ( a ) ( 2 ) ( Permissible purposes of consumer reports ), as they have no permissible purpose to report or share any information regarding me. I demand an immediate investigation into these matters and request that these unauthorized accounts be removed from my credit reports and that the harassment cease immediately. Thanks

Complaint narrative:
On XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX payment through my Chase mobile banking app to what I believed was a legitimate local landlord using the email XXXX and phone number XXXX. Immediately after sending the money, I realized it was a scam. The name shown on the XXXX transfer was XXXX XXXX which added to the illusion of legitimacy. 
Within minutes of the transaction, I contacted Chase customer service by phone to cancel or reverse the payment. The representative confirmed the transaction was still pending at the time and reassured memultiple timesthat the funds would not be completed and would be returned to my account the next morning. 
However, the next day I saw that the {$500.00} had been fully processed and withdrawn from my account. I immediately followed up with Chase and filed a fraud claim. A few days later, I received a message through my Chase secure inbox stating : No action will be taken. This inquiry is now resolved. I was given a claim code, but no meaningful investigation or assistance seemed to occur. 
I am extremely disappointed with how this was handled. This was a scamI did not intend to send money to a fraudster. I acted quickly, contacted the bank immediately, and provided all relevant information. Despite doing everything right as a consumer, I was left with no resolution or refund. 
I am requesting that this case be re-investigated, and that I receive a full refund for this fraudulent transaction. XXXX payments should not be considered irreversible when fraud is involved, especially when customers report the issue immediately.

Complaint narrative:
My account with EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION was never late! I have had exceptional payment history all payments were placed on Autopay. This late payment that is reporting is a result on a systematic error on their end processing my payment.

This was clearly a billing error made my the company and is not a reflection of my payment experience which violates USC Code 1681eb. This error has caused severe hard to my reputation, my character, my mode of living and to my family!

I demand the late payment to be updated.

They are not in compliance with the following law. 15 USC 1666b and its requirements set the standards and the guidance for a creditor to treat a payment as late, yet they are reporting a payment as late and they did not comply with the law!

15 USC 1666b ( a ) Time to make payments A creditor may not treat a payment on a credit card account under an open end consumer credit plan as late for any purpose, unless the creditor has adopted reasonable procedures designed to ensure that each periodic statement including the information required by section 1637 ( b ) of this title is mailed or delivered to the consumer not later than 21 days before the payment due date.

EQUIFAX EXPERIAN TRANSUNION Never Sent the periodic statement along with the disclosures from section 1637 ( b ).

I have requested proof that this information was mailed or delivered 21 days before the payment due date and this information was requested in good faith pursuant rule 1002 and It was never provided.

This is unfair, illegal, fraudulent, and not equitable to me as a consumer!

Update the late payments from my consumer reports

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:
Subject : Request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) all accounts fraudulent in this complaint be DELETED immediately. 

I am submitting this complaint to request immediate intervention due to serious violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), and Truth in Lending Act ( TILA ) by EXPERIAN, Despite previous requests for correction, these violations continue to negatively impact my credit report and financial standing. 

I am writing to contest inaccurate information on my credit report in accordance with 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 and to formally request the blocking of this erroneous data. Enclosed is a copy of my Police Report/FTC identity theft report ( FTC REPORT NUMBER : XXXX, XXXX ) as evidence supporting my identity theft claim. As per 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, upon submission of an identity theft report by a consumer, credit reporting agencies are obligated to block any information flagged by the consumer as stemming from identity theft within FOUR business days. The following information on my credit report is the result of identity theft and should be blocked. 

I request, pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), that you, the credit reporting agency EXPERIAN, block the information appearing in my consumer credit report resulting from identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of receiving this complaint. PLEASE DELETE THIS ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.

I do not recognize the accounts mentioned as reported. The accounts mentioned above in my consumer credit report that you maintain were not opened, created, or initiated by me. The accounts mentioned above are the result of identity theft and fraud. 
I did not authorize the sharing of my information nor did I consent to its reporting. I was not provided with adequate information or the option to opt out. Reporting without consent constitutes fraud for the purposes permitted by Title 15, United States Code ( USC ), Section 1981b2. This also violates my privacy rights under Title 15, USC, Section 1681a ( 4 ). These accounts must be immediately blocked or removed from my consumer report, pursuant to FCRA 605b. If any additional documentation is necessary to process my request, please inform me promptly.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
