Issue: Fraud or scam — 
Company: WELLS FARGO & COMPANY
State: UT

Complaint narrative:
A XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, desired to purchase a new piece of construction equipment for our XXXX, but growing business. We had searched auction sites and advertisements for used construction equipment for weeks. We came across some advertisements for used XXXX XXXX, and we reached out to the seller and indicated our interest. 
A sales representative, or so we thought, contacted us about the piece of equipment that we were interested in. The seller sent videos, photos, website information, serial numbers, XXXX, and other information that all indicated they were running a legitimate business. 
We moved forward with the purchase of the piece of equipment and the seller sent us the executed contract in exchange for a wire transfer in the amount of {$73000.00}. The money was wired, and shipping information was provided. However, the shipment kept getting mysteriously delayed and never actually arrived to the project site. Weeks went by and the seller has disappeared, along with our money, and we have completely lost contact. 
I went into the XXXX, Wells Fargo branch, where I originated the wire transfer, on XX/XX/XXXX. I met with XXXX who is the XXXX of the XXXX branch. XXXX indicated that there was little that Wells Fargo could do, even though the account I transferred the money to was another Wells Fargo account. They indicated that I was likely just out of luck. 
A bank should be able to retract funds in the event of fraud.

Issue: Problem with a company's investigation into an existing problem — Difficulty submitting a dispute or getting information about a dispute over the phone
Company: EQUIFAX, INC.
State: IN

Complaint narrative:
Equifax reports outdated account/pay status on consumer credit reports as current. The information listed on the consumer credit report that Equifax provides is misleading, causing adverse action by potential lenders or creditors towards consumer 's who are applying for credit or loans. Specifically, the " Account Status or " Payment Status '' category listed on consumer reports appears to maintain the oldest derogatory status, despite the data furnisher providing the current status. For example, if a consumer was 60 days late making a payment 3 years ago, but is now current, Equifax may continue to report the Account/Payment Status as 60 days late, despite receiving information from the creditor that the account is current. This is separate from the payment history, which is also displayed on a credit report in a different area on the report. This is misleading for a number of reasons : 1 ) account/payment status and payment history are factors in calculating credit scores to determine creditworthiness ; with payment history carrying the most weight ( approx 35 % ). However FICO combines BOTH into payment history when calculating credit scores. 2 ) Account/Pay status and payment history are NOT the same on a credit report and are clearly displayed separately. XXXX ) The term " status '' infers the current position of something unless otherwise indicated. Payment history infers both the current position of something AND the previous position. Using my above example, if Equifax is reporting the account/pay status of the account, one would naturally assume they are reporting the CURRENT account/pay status ; not the status from 3 years ago. XXXX ) Equifax has the use of several alternative statuses that can be used to reflect a consumer 's account/pay status more accurately, such as " XXXXXXXX 60 days late '' or XXXX 60 days past due ''. With this information in mind, Equifax appears to purposefully and knowingly report account/pay status information that is inaccurate. This is a clear and blatant violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, which requires consumer credit information to be reported in a fair, timely, and accurate manner. Additionally, consumer reporting agencies are required to correct or delete information they know is inaccurate.

Complaint narrative:
This is so annoying & frustrating. Ive sent EXPERIAN multiple letters that Im the one whos disputing the items that are UNKNOWN to me. In Experians responses that make the claim that have not initiated any disputes on my behalf due to the fraudulent or high risk nature, and the documents I provided have either been confirmed as fraudulent or deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. This is a complete joke. How in the world did they verify these claims? First of all, I know that under FCRA Section 619 Obtaining information under false pretenses that any person who knowingly and willfully obtains information on a consumer from a consumer reporting agency under false pretenses shall be fined under title 18 United States Code, imprisoned for not more than 2 years, or both. Most importantly, I never sent my documentation to anyone else as it deemed as high risk due to the potential for fraud. Also, according to FCRA 611 ( a ) ( 3 ) Determination That Dispute Is Frivolous or Irrelevant ( A ) a consumer reporting agency may terminate a reinvestigation of information disputed by a consumer under that paragraph if the agency reasonably determines that the dispute by the consumer is frivolous or irrelevant, including by reason of a failure by a consumer to provide sufficient information to investigate the disputed information. ( B ) Notice of determination. Upon making any determination in accordance with subparagraph ( A ) that a dispute is frivolous or irrelevant, a consumer reporting agency shall notify the consumer of such determination not later than 5 business days after making such determination, by mail or, if authorized by the consumer for that purpose, by any other means available to the agency. Again, under FCRA 617 Civil liability for negligent noncompliance [ 15 U.S.C. 1681o ] Any person who is negligent in failing to comply with any requirement imposed under this title with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in an amount equal to the sum of ( XXXX ) any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure; and ( 2 ) in the case of any successful action to enforce any liability under this section, the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court. I need your help! As a consumer, I need to correct my credit file for my credit worthiness, credit standing, or credit capacity to obtain my rights and My Financial Freedom that has been DAMAGE. List of items that are UNKNOWN to me : XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$2700.00} and XXXX XXXX XXXX Date opened XX/XX/XXXX Balance {$13000.00}.
