If such verification can not be provided, the accounts must be permanently removed from my credit file.

Compensation for False Verification : Under FCRA 616 ( 15 U.S.C. 1681n ), if any of these accounts are falsely verified as valid despite my claim of identity theft, I reserve the right to pursue statutory damages of {$1000.00} per violation.
