Adverse action against a consumer is AGAINST THE LAW according to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act which is codified in XXXX U.S.C 1691c and is pursuant to civil liability under 15 U.S.C 1692k.

You are subject to criminally liability for violating 15 U.S.C 1691 as I have proof that i was discriminated against by AMERICAN EXPRESS due to the response I received.

AMERICAN EXPRESS is in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1642, U.S.C 1681m and 12 cfr 1002 because I, the consumer, made an application in good faith, but credit was not issued. 
Furthermore, because my social security number ( credit card ) was used and i received NO benefit. This is proof of fraudulent activity ( unauthorized use of credit card ) on behalf of AMERICAN EXPRESS If AMERICAN EXPRESS fails to make any reasonable procedures to resolve this matter and compensate me for the use of my credit card I will indeed make AMERICAN EXPRESS criminally and civilly liable for all actual damages pursuant to 15 USC 1681n and 15 USC 1681o. 
I will also follow up with an invoice for said violations ( { {$10000.00} } per violation ).
