Complaint narrative:
Upon reviewing my credit report, I discovered several accounts that I do not recognize and believe to be fraudulent. These accounts appear to be opened without my authorization, and I am deeply concerned about the potential impact on my credit standing and financial well-being. I suspect that I am a victim of identity theft, as I have not initiated or authorized the opening of these accounts. The presence of these unauthorized accounts on my credit report has caused me significant distress and uncertainty about the security of my personal information. I have attached a copy of my credit report highlighting the unrecognized accounts for your reference.

Product: Debt collection — Rental debt
Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: FAIR COLLECTIONS & OUTSOURCING, INC.
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I paid off a disputed debt to Fair Collections & Outsourcing ( FCO ) on XX/XX/year> because it was required for me to secure housing. The original debt originated from XXXX at the XXXX Apartments, but the amount sent to collections was grossly inflated and inaccurate and was paid in full long before I started getting notices from FCO. The final statement from the apartment complex shows a balance of {$170.00}, but FCO reported the collection as {$710.00}. I paid {$570.00} to settle the account under protest, as I needed to resolve the issue in order to rent my current apartment. I have attached the final statement from the apartment complex as evidence of the discrepancy. I have disputed this debt with both FCO and the credit bureaus, providing documentation to support my claim, but the collection has not been removed or corrected. This inaccurate and inflated collection account continues to remain on my credit report, despite being paid, and it is unfairly impacting my creditworthiness and ability to pursue financial goals like purchasing a home. Desired Resolution : I am requesting that Fair Collections & Outsourcing ( FCO ) remove the collection account from my credit report entirely. The collection amount was not valid, and I have provided evidence of the correct balance from the original creditor, XXXX at the XXXX Apartments. The account has been paid in full plus some, and removal would be a fair resolution given the inaccuracies and the harm caused by this situation.
