Consumer Narrative
I believe I have been a victim of identity theft for the last few years. I have been in a relationship with someone who has been abusing my credit for their own personal needs. I recently reviewed a copy of my credit reports from all XXXX bureaus to find several unfamiliar and unauthorized accounts and inquiries. To be specific this account from XXXX XXXX XXXX SIMPLE was allegedly opened XX/XX/2021 and is reporting an overdue balance of XXXX and which I have no knowledge of this account being established. I have tried several times to contact all XXXX bureaus regarding this inaccurate information on my credit report. In addition to that, I have submitted several disputes to each bureau regarding this as well.Neither company has tried to contact me or to update any of the reported information.
