Complaint narrative:
Experian and TransUnion suffered a significant data breach when their systems were hacked, compromising sensitive consumer information. As a result, my personal data, including my name, Social Security number, and financial history, was exposed. This breach raises serious concerns about identity theft and may lead to lifelong issues with my credit rating and financial security. I am now facing the possibility of fraudulent accounts being opened in my name, which could take years to resolve and severely impact my ability to secure loans, credit cards, or even housing in the future.

XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX partial account number XXXX : Formal Dispute of Inaccurate Reporting Request for Removal, 1099-C Issuance, and Cease-and-Desist Notice Account Numbers : XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally dispute the inaccurate reporting of the above-referenced accounts and to demand immediate corrective action pursuant to federal consumer protection laws, including but not limited to the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681 et seq., and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ( FDCPA ), 15 U.S.C. 1692 et seq. 1. Dispute of Account Reporting The accounts listed above have been reported as written off as profit/loss ( charge-off ). However, I have identified that these accounts are being repeatedly reported as new charge-offs with an outstanding balance, despite being previously written off. This constitutes inaccurate and misleading reporting in violation of the FCRA, specifically : 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) : Duty to ensure maximum possible accuracy of information. 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( b ) : Duty to investigate disputes regarding furnished information. By continuing to report these accounts inaccurately, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX is damaging my creditworthiness, resulting in defamation of character and material harm to my financial reputation. 2. Request for 1099-C Issuance As these accounts have been charged off, I am requesting that you provide a copy of the IRS Form 1099-C ( Cancellation of Debt ) for each account. The issuance of this form is required when a debt is canceled or written off and no longer collectible. Failure to provide this required documentation further demonstrates non-compliance with applicable consumer protection laws. 3. Cease-and-Desist Notification Under the FDCPA, 15 U.S.C. 1692c ( c ), this letter serves as a formal cease-and-desist notice regarding all collection efforts related to these accounts. You are instructed to cease all forms of communication with me, including but not limited to phone calls, emails, or letters, regarding these accounts. 4. Demand for Resolution To resolve this matter, I demand the following actions be taken within XXXX houses after receiving : Immediately Delete and remove the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX partial account number # XXXX from all credit reporting agencies. Provide a copy of the IRS Form 1099-C for the cancellation of each account, if applicable. Confirm in writing that you have ceased all collection activities and communications related to this account.
