Consumer Narrative
on XX/XX/2019 an account at wells fargo was established in my name, I noticed that fraud account was reporting on my credit report and tried disputing this account multiple times as identity theft fraud and the end result is, the account is still reporting on my credit report as charged off. when I called wells fargo and supplied the customer rep with my social to look up this account, the account could not be found. I supplied the rep with the account number that i received and was told that the ssn doesn't match what's on their file. I have filed another dispute with the credit agencies to have this information removed from my credit report. I asked for validation of this debt, I have yet to receive it. this fraudulent account has lowered my credit score and held me back from getting approved by apartments, this account has cause me unnecessary hardship. I need this account removed from my credit report and compensation for the hardship I endured. the ssn number on the account or application doesn't belong to me, this account needs to be removed
