Issue: Incorrect information on your report — Account information incorrect
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: CA

Complaint narrative:
Im reaching out to dispute an account thats currently showing on my credit report. I need you to certify, with full accuracy and confidence, that every single piece of data tied to this account actually belongs to me including but not limited to the account number, payment history, balances, dates, and all identifying details.

If you can not fully verify and certify that this account and all of the information attached to it is 100 % accurate and legitimately tied to me, then you are obligated to delete the entire account from my credit report immediately.

Let me be very clear : Im not asking whether the account looks familiar. I am demanding that you confirm that each data point reported under my name is accurate, verifiable, and truly mine. If theres even a shred of uncertainty, or if you can not produce the necessary records to validate this account as mine, it does not belong on my credit report and keeping it there would be a violation of my rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ).

I am writing to formally dispute the recent response provided in regard to my complaint filed with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) concerning the inaccurate reporting of a XXXX  on my credit file. I have serious concerns about the validity of credit bureaus verification process and the credibility of the information allegedly used to substantiate this reporting.

However, I have obtained clear, written confirmation from the relevant court XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX that they do not report or furnish XXXX  proceedings information to credit reporting agencies. This official statement from the court raises serious questions about who, in fact, provided the information used in your " verification '' process. Furthermore, I contacted XXXX, a known third-party data provider, and they confirmed that they have no record of the XXXX  account in question. This evidence contradicts any claim that the information was verified as reported. Given that : XXXX. XXXX. The court itself has stated it does not report information to credit bureaus.

Complaint narrative:
I am updating a late payment that is currently being reported on my credit report as " open '' or unresolved. This entry is inaccurate and misleading. I have either already resolved the payment, or I was never late as claimed. The continued reporting of this item as open and delinquent is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), particularly 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ), which requires consumer reporting agencies to maintain maximum possible accuracy of the information they report. This misreporting has negatively impacted my credit score and may hinder my ability to obtain credit or employment. I am requesting an immediate investigation into this matter, as well as a correction or deletion of the inaccurate late payment record if it can not be verified.

Dear CFPB, I am writing to dispute fraudulent accounts on my credit reports, which have resulted from identity theft. These accounts were opened without my authorization or consent, and their reporting violates multiple provisions of U.S.

law, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ). The accounts in question are : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  Account number : XXXX ( All three bureaus ) XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number : XXXX ( All three bureaus ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX XXXX ( All three bureaus ) -XXXX XXXX XXXX Account number XXXX XXXX XXXX All three bureaus ) Under 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2, I have the right to block and demand removal of information resulting from identity theft. Furthermore, reporting these accounts without my explicit consent violates 15 U.S.C. 1681b, which governs permissible purposes for accessing and reporting consumer information.

I demand that these fraudulent accounts be manually reviewed and deleted from my credit reports. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
