Complaint narrative:
XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I am submitting a formal dispute regarding late payment entries reported within the past two years on my credit file. These late payments resulted from unauthorized interference with my financial accounts due to a cybersecurity breach on my mobile device. As they are not a reflection of my financial behavior, I am requesting their immediate removal. 
Issue Summary : I unknowingly downloaded a VPN application on my mobile device. This VPN, intended for privacy protection, contained security vulnerabilities that allowed unauthorized users to access my device. As a result : Unknown third parties gained access to my financial login credentials.

My automatic payment settings were altered without my knowledge.

This interference led to the late payments that are now inaccurately reflected on my credit report. 
FCRA & Federal Violations Committed : Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) 15 U.S.C. 1681s-2 ( a ) ( 1 ) ( A ), furnishers are prohibited from reporting inaccurate or unverifiable data. Since these late payments resulted from unauthorized external interference, they are inaccurate and must be removed immediately.

Additionally, under FCRA 1681i, I have the right to dispute any information that can not be fully substantiated. The late payments in question do not meet verification requirements due to the nature of the incident.

Furthermore, the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ) 15 U.S.C. 1693g ( a ) states that consumers can not be held liable for unauthorized electronic transactions. Since my account settings were tampered with, these late payments were not my responsibility and should not be attributed to me.

Requested Resolution : I am requesting the following actions : Immediate removal of all late payments from the past two years that were impacted by this unauthorized interference.

A written confirmation verifying that these late payments have been removed.

A compliance review to ensure that my account information is reported accurately in accordance with federal regulations.

If action is not taken to resolve this matter, I will have no choice but to pursue small claims court proceedings to ensure that my rights under FCRA and EFTA are upheld. However, I trust that in good faith, you will follow the law regardless, and I hope this will be resolved amicably.

Please confirm resolution of this dispute at your earliest convenience.

Complaint narrative:
I received an alert notifying me that a new unauthorized account was added to my Equifax credit report. Other credit monitoring services have also alerted me about this account, along with incorrect address updates. I have not authorized or opened any new accounts, nor have I updated my address. Its important to note that I am a victim of identity theft, and my consumer report includes a fraud indicator reflecting this status. Additionally, a similar fraudulent account was previously disputed and removed due to identity theft. Currently, I can not access or dispute this account directly through my online Equifax portal ( my.equifax.com ). I request that this unauthorized account and the incorrect addresses be promptly removed and blocked from my credit report.

In compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and as a gesture of respect to the Federal Trade Commission Committee on accuracy and completeness of credit information I am formally writing in today to dispute negative information appearing on my credit.

Complaint narrative:
Experian has failed to fulfill its legal obligation under the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information on my credit report, leaving inaccurate accounts unresolved. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) has recently filed a lawsuit against Experian alleging systemic issues such as filing to forward consumer provided evidence to furnishers, accepting unreliable responses, and failing to adequately notify consumers of disputed outcomes. These failures align with my experience, where Experian has failed to neither correct nor remove disputed items dispute the evidence I have provided, causing ongoing hard to my credit standing. I am requesting immediate corrective action to remove the disputed account as Experians inaction violates federal law and my rights as a consumer.
