Consumer Narrative
I received an e-mail saying a new negative item was now impacting my credit score. I logged in and checked and it was a balance from a collection agency for an amount of {$680.00}. I asked for the item to be disputed ( with XXXX ) and they did so, but in a short time confirmed it was my information. I tried to file a police report but the police still have not returned my calls. XXXX doesnt seem concerned that Im telling them that the person who used my info to get approved for this card was not me. I told the collection agency that this isnt me. They agreed that it looked suspicious that it was not my address on the account. I still have not heard back from XXXX XXXX XXXX. My previous employer, XXXX XXXX XXXX lost my personal information due to a data breach. During the year of 2021 I had the credit reporting agencies lock my social security number with a fraud alert.
