Complaint narrative:
I have done everything by the book with disputing these accounts. Ive contacted the bank in regards to this matter. They claimed its been resolved. Ive contact the law enforcement agency and filed a report and affidavit. They claim they identity theft report is valid. And lastly, Im contact the credit reporting agencies. Both XXXX and XXXX have removed the accounts per legal requirement. But for some weird reason Experian feels Im not following all the steps. I know the consumer laws and the courts are very lenient with the banks and credit reporting agencies so filing a lawsuit is a waste of energy. Seeing Ive submitted my claim with Experian for over 6 months, Im at wits end. This is the 6th complaint Ive filed against them and every time I get the same ridiculous response. They make some absurd claim that the documents Ive submitted are not valid. Id like the CFPB to honestly look closely at this case because it seems this is a lack of their legal requirement to process the identity theft report. I have filed it with a law enforcement agency. Identitytheft.gov is a federal law enforcement agency. Id like to see this matter handled properly. All this grief of identity theft and not having any access to my credit is creating a ton of emotional and physical distress. Its cause a great deal of strain in my work and personal lives. I literally am losing my mind because I have no other recourse XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to bring to your attention a matter of great concern related to what appears to be an ongoing and persistent issue of multiple attempts to remove fraudulent items from my credit report. Despite my previous efforts to rectify this situation, it is disconcerting to observe that unauthorized parties are making repeated and unauthorized attempts to alter my credit information. 

I wish to outline the following specific concerns : I have noticed and documented several instances where fraudulent items on my credit report have been subject to removal attempts without my authorization or validation. These unauthorized actions not only compromise the accuracy of my credit history but also raise serious questions about the security of my credit information. 

Despite the evident impact of these removal attempts, I have not been contacted by your agency for proper verification or authentication. The absence of thorough verification procedures is alarming and contributes to the ongoing vulnerability of my credit information. 

Given the persistent nature of these removal attempts, I am deeply concerned about the heightened risk of identity theft. I have taken immediate steps to secure my personal information, but I urgently request a comprehensive investigation to prevent further unauthorized alterations to my credit report. 

I formally request that your agency conducts an immediate and thorough investigation into these incidents. Additionally, I seek regular updates on the progress of the investigation, along with detailed information on any actions taken to prevent and rectify the unauthorized removal attempts on my credit report. 

To assist in your investigation, I have attached relevant documents. 

I understand the importance of maintaining the integrity and security of credit information, and I trust that your agency will treat this matter with the urgency it deserves.
