Company: Bounce AI, Inc.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year>. I filed a complaint against you as I am the victim of identity theft. I have attached a copy of of FTC Identity Theft report. I learned that someone used my personal information to open an account. This debt is not mine. Accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, I request that you stop collection proceedings against me and cease communications with me about this debt. I further request, pursuant to section 615 ( g ) ( 1 ) of the FCRA, that you notify that the debt is the result of identity theft. Under section 623. Duties When ID Theft Occurs. All furnishers must have in place reasonable procedures to respond to notifications from CRAs that information furnished is the result of identity theft, and to prevent refurnishing the information in the future. A furnisher may not furnish information that a consumer has identified as resulting from identity theft unless the furnisher subsequently knows or is informed by the consumer that the information is correct. Section 623 ( a ) ( 6 ). If a furnisher learns that it has furnished inaccurate information due to identity theft, it must notify each consumer reporting agency of the correct information and must thereafter report only complete and accurate information. Section 623 ( a ) ( 2 ). When any furnisher of information is notified pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 605B that a debt has resulted from identity theft, the furnisher may not sell, transfer, or place for collection the debt except in certain limited circumstances. Remove this fraudulent account from all my credit reports immediately. I am a litigious consumer and I have already asked you one time to remove this unauthorized fraudulent information from my credit report. If this is not done after this new complaint I will not hesitate to file a small claims lawsuit for violations of the FCRA and FDCPA. You already stated back in XXXX that you were reaching out to whomever sold you this debt about my complaint and that you will get back to me and you never did. Let this be a final warning. This is the 2nd and last time I will be reaching out and if this is not removed my next course of action is a filing a lawsuit. I stand on that this will happen if this is not removed immediately.

Company: EQUIFAX, INC.

Complaint narrative:
I am formally disputing the following negative items on my credit report. 
Despite multiple attempts to have these inaccuracies properly investigated and resolved, no meaningful action has been taken. I have submitted all required documentation and followed up repeatedly, yet the errors persist. This ongoing lack of action has caused undue financial hardship and has significantly affected my well-being. The mental and emotional toll of dealing with these unresolved discrepancies has been overwhelming. 

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), I am entitled to a fair and accurate credit report, including the removal of unverifiable or incorrect information. I urge you to take immediate steps to verify and rectify these items, as failure to do so constitutes a violation of my rights under federal law.

Complaint narrative:
The glaring absence of concrete evidence to support its reliability, combined with the dissemination of unverified information, represents a clear violation of the statutory requirements outlined in 15 USC 1681i ( 7 ). This lack of compliance is not only troubling but also deeply frustrating, given the critical importance of adhering to legal obligations. Therefore, I strongly advocate for the immediate removal of this account in accordance with the specified regulations, unless verifiable evidence is promptly provided to establish its authenticity. Any delay in addressing this issue exacerbates the frustration caused by the apparent disregard for regulatory protocols and the legal standards that ensure fairness and accuracy.

Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX Consumer Social Security Number : ( Private SSN ) Consumer Date of Birth : ( Private XXXX ) This formal complaint is filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) to demand the immediate blocking of fraudulent information appearing on my consumer credit report. This action is requested pursuant to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX ), which mandates that you block information resulting from identity theft within XXXX ( XXXX ) business days of receiving this notification. 

The following fraudulent, inaccurate, and false information, directly resulting from identity theft, is present on my credit report and must be blocked : A personal loan account opened at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year> under the account number ( private ). 

These fraudulently opened accounts have generated in unwarranted collection attempts being reported on my consumer FICO credit report. As evidence, I have attached a detailed list of these fraudulent collections, accounts and a copy of my consumer FICO credit report, as maintained by Equifax, clearly displaying these fraudulent items. 

I unequivocally state that I do not recognize any of the aforementioned accounts or associated collections. These entries on my credit report were neither initiated, authorized, nor made by me. All of these negative items are a direct consequence of identity theft and fraud, causing significant damage to my creditworthiness and financial well-being. 

Further irrefutable proof of this identity theft and fraud is provided in the attached copy of the official Federal Trade Commission ( FTC ) Identity Theft Criminal Complaint # ( private case number ). This report substantiates that the disputed items are indeed the result of criminal activity and not legitimate financial obligations incurred by me. 

Therefore, in accordance with my rights under the FCRA XXXX, I demand the immediate blocking of all the identified fraudulent information from my credit report within the statutory timeframe of XXXX ( XXXX ) business days. Your prompt attention to this urgent matter is required to rectify the inaccuracies caused by this identity theft.

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/XXXX Cash App had closed my account without warning. I filed an appeal and today on XX/XX/XXXX Cash App emailed me to tell me my appeal has been denied but I could still access my funds. I go to link a debit card that they do support and was shown that I can not continue because my account is closed. I contact support and they tell me I need to link a previous linked debit card. Ive only had XXXX debit cards linked to that account both of which were XXXX XXXX cards and XXXX XXXX doesnt accept transfers from cash app and it automatically declined it. XXXX of the cards I no longer have access to and the other cash app tells me I have an invalid CVV or expiration date and they are not incorrect. So when I asked what else can I do to get my funds off since the appeal was denied and I have {$890.00} still just sitting in my account and they told me theres nothing else that can be done beside linking a previous card which wont do anything anyways. Theyre literally holding my money from me. Also, through XXXX I have XXXX different bank accounts that are linked to cash app and that cash app is receiving my info from, but cash app wont let me link any of them.
