Complaint narrative:
I did not approve these transactions to be included in my consumer report, neither in writing nor verbally. Therefore, I formally request that these accounts be blocked and removed from my record. This is not a mistake or a misrepresentation. These transactions were included without my explicit consent or instruction. 

I am stressing this to highlight the seriousness of my request. It is based on accurate information, and I am not attempting to deceive or manipulate the situation in any way. My intent is solely to ensure that my consumer report reflects only those transactions that I have authorized. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of my financial records and ensuring that they are accurate and truthful. My request is genuine and aimed at correcting an unauthorized inclusion, not at exploiting any system or misleading any party involved.

Complaint narrative:
Please refer to the attached XXXX  I have submitted with this complaint for complete information and reference. 

At some point around the time that an account was opened with XXXX milestone credit cards, my purse was lost/ came up missing and inside of it was my wallet and other documents ( bills, etc. ) from the mail I received that day all of which contained sensitive information that would be valuable to anyone wanting to use it to steal identity and that is exactly what happened.

I had absolutely no idea that the account was opened until I ran my own credit report and monitoring because I saw how low my score had gone. I was shocked to find the outstanding amount to be over {$800.00}. I did not spend any of that credit, I did not open the account I did not charge anything to this account and i filed a dispute with Experian whoc resulted in the company, XXXX, basically refusing to remove it from my report. I am not going to pay a cent to them because number 1 I did not open this and I did not charge anything to the account. I never knew it existed it was created without my knowledge by a person assuming my identity and this company dropped the ball during the identification verification process.

it is highly likely they were conned and this account was fraudulently opened. it is not my fault this company was lied to. please help me!

Complaint narrative:
I recently discovered that I am a victim of identity theft. So I am writing to request an EXTENDED FRAUD ALERT to be immediately placed in my credit file so that no new credit will be approved or issued until the lender first verified my identity. Fortunately, in accordance with the FCRA Sections 605B,615 ( f ) and 623 ( a ) ( 6 ), an identity theft report can be used to permanent block fraudulent information that results from identity theft, such as accounts or addresses from appearing on a victims credit report. Identity theft reports can prevent a company from continuing to collect debts that result from identity theft. Pursuant to the FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ), please BLOCK ALL INFORMATION RESULTING FROM IDENTITY THEFT.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: TN

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX, around XXXX, I was attempting to purchase concert tickets online from XXXX for a concert that evening ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I agreed to an amount of {$500.00} and was trying to send the money to their phone number. However, the phone number was entered incorrectly which led me to try to correct the phone number address that the money would be transferred to. Given that this payment occurred on XXXX XXXX, XXXX always prompts you for authorization ( I found this out when trying to dispute with XXXX ) to verify that the amount was not fraudulent given the large dollar amount. This authorization popup never happened. XXXX claims that this type of authorization must always occur for money to be transferred, and I was never given this prompt. After the money was sent to the receiving party, I promptly called them and asked them to send back the money that was sent there without authorization. They promptly hung up and blocked my phone number. This then led me to attempt to file a dispute with XXXX, but they said they were unable to do so since they are merely the platform that banks use to send money. I then contacted Wells Fargo and filed a dispute with all this information on XX/XX/XXXX. I would have contacted sooner but Wells Fargo does not allow disputes until the charge is released from pending which takes a few days. Wells Fargo then responded to me by saying they can not give back the money since it was done on a third party platform despite the funds being drawn directly from the debit card. After hearing this resolution, I promptly contacted Wells Fargo and asked the claim to be reopened given that I never authorized the transaction. They refused to reopen it. I then explained that given the charge was never authorized by myself, this charge would be considered fraudulent, and according to federal law, per the FDIC, the maximum amount that I would be liable in this situation is {$50.00}. I asked the claim to be reopened where I would receive {$450.00} back rather than the full {$500.00}, since I am liable for {$50.00}, but they still refused.
