Complaint narrative:
Hello Equifax, my name is XXXX XXXX, I am writing you to inform you my information was involved in a data breach. I checked my credit report after I was informed my files and personal information was comprised, I checked my credit report and there were accounts I have no knowledge of or never applied for with my consent. I am writing you to delete the following inaccurate and incomplete information in my file. The items I need deleted are listed in the report. I am a victim of identity theft and did not make the charge. I ask that the items be deleted to correct my credit report. I reported the theft of my identity to the Federal Trade Commission and I also have enclosed copies of the Federal Trade Commissions Identity Theft Affidavit. Please delete the items as soon as possible. I have been a victim of identity theft and many accounts were established in my name without my knowledge or consent. The following information you have placed on my file has seriously affected my ability to obtain credit. Please be reminded that it is important for credit agencies to maintain accurate information per The Fair Credit Reporting Act. I have provided you with a Federal Trade Commission Identity Theft Report detailing the incident. I have hired a private investigator and an attorney to help stop the use of my name by someone who has stolen my identity. The inaccurate items do not belong to me and should be deleted from my credit file immediately.

Based on, 15 U.S. Code 1681c2 a consumer reporting agency shall block the reporting of any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt.
