This CFPB complaint has been filed to request pursuant to FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ) that you, the Equifax credit reporting agency , block information appearing on my consumer credit report that is the result of identity theft and fraud within 4 business days of you receiving this complaint. I am filing this FTC Identity Theft Affidavit to report XXXX fraudulent accounts appearing on my consumer FICO Equifax credit report, which I do not recognize as reported and which are the result of identity theft and fraud. These fraudulent accounts consist of a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX   *, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, an auto loan opened at XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a collection account opened at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX, another collection account opened at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX an auto loan opened at XXXX XXXX  on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, an auto loan opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a collection account opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, a credit card opened at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and a collection account opened at XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX under the account number XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX. These accounts have resulted in several fraudulent hard inquiries and fraudulent collections appearing on my consumer FICO credit report. I demand that the aforementioned fraudulent items be removed from each of my consumer credit reports and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws. All accounts above, collections, late payments, and charge-offs result from identity theft and fraud. I have attached a copy of FTC Identity Theft Criminal Complaints # XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX as proof from the US Federal Trade Commission that all of the aforementioned consumer credit accounts, collections, and hard inquiries are the result of identity theft and fraud. I demand that the fraudulent items be removed from my consumer credit report and that all collection activity related to said items cease pursuant to my rights within the FCRA and FDCPA laws.
