Re : Account Numbers : XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX  XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Dear Credit Agency, I am writing to formally dispute the accuracy and legitimacy of the above-referenced accounts, which are inaccurate, incomplete, and unverifiable items that are associated with my credit profile. These accounts are not reporting 100 % accurately and there was an account opened without my authorization. I have identified multiple violations of consumer protection laws and demand immediate action to correct these inaccuracies. 

1. Fraudulent Account and False reporting XXXX : Late payments were reported in XX/XX/XXXX ( 30 days ) and XX/XX/XXXX ( 60 days ). NEVER WAS LATE, BILLING ERROR XXXX XXXX  XXXX : Collection account of {$590.00}, opened without authorization.FRAUD XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX : The account charged off with a {$720.00} balance and late payments were reported inaccurately.

I did not authorize or open XXXX XXXX XXXX, this account is a fraud. This is a clear case of identity theft, and you do not have my consent to use my personal information, including my SSN. The lack of a signed contract or agreement further proves that this collection is fraudulent. Under 15 U.S.C. 1666b, 15 U.S.C. 1692g, and 15 U.S.C. 1692k, I demand that this account be removed from my credit report immediately.

2. Violations of Consumer Privacy and Unauthorized Use of Identification The reporting and use of my personal information without my consent is a violation of consumer privacy laws, specifically under 15 U.S.C. 6801-6809 ( Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ). These actions also violate my rights under the Uniform Commercial Code ( UCC ), which protects consumers from unauthorized use of their identification for financial gain.

3. Invasion of Privacy and Collection Practices Your company has violated my rights by unlawfully collecting and reporting these accounts without my authorization. This is a violation of 15 U.S.C. 1692e ( 5 ) and 15 U.S.C. 1692g, and I demand the immediate cessation of all collection activities, communication, and reporting. If my demands are not met, I will seek statutory damages for invasion of privacy and false reporting under 15 U.S.C. 1692k.

4. Inaccurate and Unverifiable Reporting of Late Payments As required by the Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), credit reporting agencies must report 100 % accurate and verifiable information. The reporting of late payments on the accounts is inaccurate and unverifiable, violating 15 U.S.C. 1681e ( b ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2.

By refusing to update my credit report accurately, you are further violating 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( a ) and 15 U.S.C. 1681i ( 5 ). The ongoing inaccurate reporting of these accounts will lead to statutory damages and claims for false reporting u
nder the FCRA.
