Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: OH

Complaint narrative:
I am filing this complaint against Equifax Inc. for what I assert is a willful and calculated obstruction of my legal, equitable, and commercial rights to access, review, and correct my consumer credit file. 

For weeks, Equifax has deliberately restricted my file access across all platforms ( Equifax.com, XXXX, XXXXXXXX XXXX etc. ), effectively placing a blackout on my consumer report. Equifax agents advised that the only remedy is mailing in physical documents. They rejected secure, modern verification options such as encrypted email, fax, or secure portal upload. 

I now have evidence that Equifax is rendering my file unscorable, and I suspect they may be using an internal fraud alert or freezewithout proper notice, legal authority, or due process. If true, this is constructive fraud.

I hereby assert my position not as a passive data subject, but as the living principal, the creditor, and the secured party to the legal fiction created in my name. This denial of access and unlawful restriction on my credit file violates : FCRA 605A and 1681g, The commercial requirement of good faith ( UCC 1-304 ), The equitable maxim : He who comes into equity must come with clean hands. 


Equifax has no lawful authority to suppress or restrict my access to property or data related to my person. As the surety, I stand under equity and hereby invoke equitable redress.

I demand : Immediate full access restoration, Complete removal of any false fraud alerts or freezes, Documented proof of cause for any flags, Financial damages for the harm, delay, and violation of my statutory and equitable rights.

Complaint narrative:
I was utterly shocked and devastated upon discovering unauthorized accounts, credit inquiries and inaccurate personal information made or reported without my knowledge or consent. Despite my efforts to seek clarification from the creditors, they have shamefully failed to provide the necessary information. I demand immediate action and transparency from the creditors. The creditors must provide detailed information on each account and inquiry, including dates, purposes, and types of credit products involved, furnish relevant application documents, and present evidence of explicit authorization for each inquiry. Please see the attached file for what I am complaining about!

This letter is sent pursuant to my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692g, which allows me to request proper documentation that verifies the validity and ownership of the debt. Accordingly, please provide the following : 1. The name and address of the original creditor ; 2.

A copy of the original signed agreement or contract that establishes the basis for the debt ; 4. Proof of your legal authority to collect debts in the state of Georgia ; 5.

Also, show me the balance sheet for the entire stay. ( I.e monthly payments made and/ or missed from beginning to end of the lease ). I need proof of this acclaimed debt otherwise if they can not produce what I ask of to PROVE this debt and the correct debt amount, then i Request that this debt be removed from All major credit Bureaus including XXXX immediately. Thank you for your cooperation. Attached is what they sent back from the last investigation ( which you can see is not anything of what I asked for, PROOF ) .and a snapshot of this alleged debt on my credit.

Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
Complaint that needs further investigation and was closed without ending in my favor. 

I am writing to formally dispute unauthorized transactions on my account and seek assistance in resolving this matter. 

Incident Details : Between XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, I lent my smartphone to a family member whom I had not seen in a long time. This individual gained access to my Wells Fargo login using a saved password on my Wells Fargo app. They transferred funds from my XXXX XXXX account to my checking account and used my saved Wells Fargo information on XXXX to purchase {$23000.00} worth of cryptocurrency, which was then sent to their own XXXX  address. The online purchase required only my XXXX, not my physical chip. 

Discovery : I discovered the unauthorized transactions after this family member left and blocked my number, making it impossible to contact them. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, this family member remains out of contact. Wells Fargo continues to place the blame on me for these transactions. I am requesting that the charges be reversed, as no action has been taken over the past year. While I am not asking Wells Fargo to take responsibility for the actions of my family member, I believe they should reconsider their stance and assist in resolving this matter. If this issue remains unresolved, I may need to explore legal options. 

Previous Claims : This is the second time such an incident has occurred. Wells Fargo denied my claim twice, and while I let the first claim go, the second incident has been devastating. Wells Fargo continues to believe that I authorized these transactions because they originated from my IP address, but I was not the person behind the smartphone. The fact that these unauthorized charges were made by a family member. Unless they have video proof it was me, which is absurd. 

Banker Interaction : A banker informed me that I could have prevented this because it involved a family member. However, it is unreasonable to expect me to foresee and prevent a trusted family member from scamming me and disappearing. 

Impact : It does not make sense for me to suddenly make a large purchase and lose {$23000.00} in savings and investment money that took ten years to build. Wells Fargo has now disabled my online access and restricted my debit card, further complicating my situation.

Request for Resolution : I am requesting that Wells Fargo reconsider my claim and assist in recovering the stolen funds. Although it has been almost a year since the unauthorized transactions occurred, I am prepared to file a police report and pursue legal action if this matter is not given a thorough review. 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
