Complaint narrative:
To whom it may concern, I am writing to inform you about a very alarming and important issue regarding the compromise of my social security number, which has resulted in me being a victim of a data breach and identity theft. To address this situation promptly, I have already contacted the Federal Trade Commission and filed an FTC Report which is enclosed with this correspondence. By 15 USC 1681c-2 c ( a ), it is imperative that you, as a credit reporting agency, take immediate action to block and remove all information associated with this identity theft from my credit report. This statute mandates that credit reporting agencies must promptly address such requests within four business days of receiving a complaint that includes the following information : XXXX  - XXXX - The XXXX data breach messed with my info, and now I'm seeing some sketchy stuff on my credit report. These claims aren't verified, and by the rules, you can't report them as legit without proof. I want evidence you're following compliance standards for this account. The FTC is looking into this, so take those unverified claims off my report.
