Hey there! I originally saw a personal loan amount of XXXX $ from XXXX XXXX on my credit report in XXXX of last year. I have disputed non stop with all credit bureaus, called the loan company that has used my information fraudulently to open an account under my information. It had dragged my credit down from a XXXX to now a staggering XXXX. It is effecting my life and I have had to have my mother co-sign to finance my vehicle after my lease. The whole point of my lease was to build my credit. Oh well. I have disputed with all XXXX and identitytheft.gov, and through some research I have found yall. Whoever this person is has closed the account and now has apparently paid some of this loan off. Transunion also temporarily closed the account after my first dispute. My credit went from XXXX originally, to then a XXXX on the first drop. I noticed the fraudulent account, disputed and boom back to XXXX. I thought okay maybe transunion is helping me then next month or so huge drop to XXXX. XXXX points. Then XXXX, now XXXX. This is just a nightmare of an experience. The pics I provide will show the drops and whatnot.
