State: IL

Complaint narrative:
I am writing to dispute a collection attempt related to the debt referenced under [ Account Number ]. As per the Illinois court case XXXX, the court has issued a dismissal without prejudice of both the money claim and the possession claim related to this debt. Furthermore, as noted in the attached copy of the court order, the money issue has been non-suited. 

Given that the court has dismissed the claims without prejudice and the money issue has been non-suited, I believe this collection attempt is invalid. I respectfully request that you investigate this matter and take appropriate action to ensure that this collection activity ceases and that my credit report is updated accordingly. 

Attached are the relevant court documents supporting this claim. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Complaint narrative:
Back in XXXX I had a dark web information alert scare. I got on XXXX to protect myself and improve my credit. I noticed my XXXX XXXX XXXX  that I had since XXXX and hadn't used it in years. I closed the account zero issues. Six months later I get a XXXX XXXX  congratulations letter. but I never opened an account! I called and they immediately closed it. Then I got a bill! and was shocked. I called to dispute and they said I didn't have an account and couldn't find one. I gave them the 4 digits on the bill and they finally found it and reported it for fraud and closed it. I thought it was done! Except credit collectors are calling. I don't even have a physical card for XXXX! These expenses are not mine! the card is closed but they're trying to make me responsible to pay it. I have spoken to countless representative at XXXX who agree the account is closed and has been closed... yet it still creates a huge problem on my credit report as it shows as a delinquent account that continues to be charged in delinquent fees and seems to be showing time that's passed since being paid. I have open and escalated several times since XXXX! With XXXX.. who continues to protect my account as I have had other suspicious activity like someone trying to use my social to file their taxes under me. And this all started from XXXX with this weird occurrence with my closed XXXX XXXX  account. I greatly just want my points back on my credit that I have worked extremely hard for but I am haunted by this issue. I also do want to note that I find it very odd that this all happened very closely to when comenity bank sold to barlcay. It was when the merge between them happened that all the sudden I started receiving bills from this card that has been closed. 

I am desperate for help at this point so XXXX has referred me here.
