Consumer Narrative
Hi, Im submitting this complaint myself and there is no third party involved. On XXXX I was a part of a consumer credit transaction this wasn't disclosed. Upon discovery I realized that I was Fraudulently damaged. Due to 15 U.S. Code 1692 ( e ) and 15 U.S. Code 1692a ( 3 ) Credit reporting is optional, there is no law in the US which says a transaction has to be reported to a consumer reporting agency. You will be civically liable if you do not reply because congress states credit reporting is optional. Under title 15 USC 1681n civil liability for willful non compliance -Any person that willfully fails to comply with any requirement imposed under this subchapter with respect to any consumer is liable to that consumer in the amount equal to the sum of ( A ) Any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00} ; or ( B ) In the case of liability of a natural person for obtaining a consumer report under false pretenses or knowingly without a permissible purpose, actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or {$1000.00} whichever is greater
