Complaint narrative:
I contacted XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX via US Mail and via the three major credit reporting bureaus XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion to inform them of the fact that I had discovered a fraudulent account being reported by XXXX XXXXXXXX ( account reference number provided : XXXX ) on my credit reports on behalf of XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. I provided each of the concerned parties copies of the Identity Theft Report I filed with my local police department detailing the Identity Theft I had suffered and I specifically requested that this fraudulent account be removed from my credit files immediately pursuant to 15 USC 1682c-2. I also requested verification of the debt from XXXX XXXX XXXX, to include details about how the account was opened, what personal information of mine was utilized in the fraud in order to successfully open and/or maintain continued usage of the account, any identifiable information regarding any possible linked payment methods associated with the account which may help me to either identify the perpetrator and/or discover whether other fraudulent accounts may have been opened elsewhere using my personal information, transaction records, statements, billing addresses associated with the account, what methods are used ( if any ) to verify the information associated with the account, etc. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX ignored my requests and following the dispute process with XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion, erroneously concluded that the information regarding this account was verified as accurate. It is not accurate. This account is the direct result of a pattern of fraud being perpetrated by someone who managed to steal my wallet back in XX/XX/XXXX and in fact, this is the second time that XXXX XXXX has allowed this individual to open a fraudulent credit card account with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX  using my identity. Upon further inspection of my other credit reports with XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and XXXX, I also recently discovered that there were also multiple fraudulent checking and savings accounts opened in my name with XXXX XXXX XXXX as well. I had also reported those previous identity theft incidents to police and obtained replacements for my missing Virginia Driver 's License, Washington DC issued Birth Certificate, Social Security Card, bank debit cards, credit cards and other sensitive items. Despite the fact that I fully informed XXXX XXXXXXXX of these details and facts, they continue to disregard my correspondence and report this fraudulent account to the three major credit bureaus in violation of 15 USC 1682c-2 and other applicable consumer protection laws. These fraudulent credit card account entries still appear on all three of my major credit reports and the fraudulent bank accounts still appear on my XXXX  and XXXX reports.
