Complaint narrative:
I am writing to inform you that I have been the victim of multiple confirmed data breaches which compromised my personal information, including my email address and passwords. 

Attached are screenshots showing my data was exposed in several breaches, including XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and multiple combolists between XXXX and XXXX. These incidents exposed sensitive information such as my full name, date of birth, physical address, email address, Social Security number and passwords. 

As a result of these breaches, I am experiencing security and identity concerns and believe that unauthorized inquiries have been made using my personal information. 

I am formally requesting that multiple unauthorized credit inquiries made in my name be investigated and removed from my credit reports, as I did not initiate or authorize them. 

I attached the data breach notifications.
