Consumer Narrative
I've talked to the bank & they've agreed to remove the accounts. BUT TransUnion has some internal block which they're claiming they can use to not block the accounts because they feel they're above the law. When questioned why they're not accepting the Identity Theft report they claim they have an internal policy ( which is OUTSIDE FCRA laws ) & they're unwilling to explain why they won't accept the Identity Theft report ( which is a FEDERAL LAW ). So TransUnion feels they're above the letter of the law & will not explain their policy ... Im submitting a complaint to you today to inform you I was the victim of identity theft. I researched on how to remove the fraudulent accounts in my report and found that I need to visit FEDERAL TRADE COMMISION or https : //www.ftc.gov to file a report and Per FCRA section 605b Credit Reporting Agencies are required to remove/block any accounts listed on an id theft report. Please find the ATTACHED documents to assist in the blocking of the erroneous information which is being posted to my report. Here is the list of accounts/items which do not belong to me or were opened without my permission. XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance : $ XXXX XXXX XXXX Date Opened : XX/XX/XXXX Balance XXXX {$2400.00}. According to FCRA Section 605B ( a ) the CREDIT REPORTING AGENCIES shall block any information in the file of a consumer that the consumer identifies as information that resulted from an alleged identity theft, not later than 4 business days after the date of receipt. Im attaching the required FTC Report for you ( which complies with FCRA Section 603 ( q ) ( 4 ) which states ( 4 ) The term " identity theft report '' has the meaning given that term by rule of the Bureau, and means, at a minimum, a report ( A ) that alleges an identity theft ; ) ( B ) that is a copy of an official, valid report filed by a consumer with an appropriate Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency, including the United States Postal Inspection Service, or such other government agency deemed appropriate by the Bureau ; and ( C ) the filing of which subjects the person filing the report to criminal penalties relating to the filing of false information if, in fact, the information in the report is false. ) The following report included this language but Transunion is neglecting to process it to the letter of the law. Please see they are held accountable for as this is impacting my life in emotional, physical & financially... and I would truly not what to pursue a legal remedy ... and the bank 's records ( learned through more research both parties require ). Please block/remove this file. If you feel there is a possibility these accounts belong to me I require all documentation that bears my signature ( another research items I found that requires you to verify with 100 % accuracy that each account is 100 % true, accurate, correct, complete & VERIFIABLE ). If you do not provide any records & claim the item is verified please understand I will seek legal action. I do not take kindly to games nor does my attorney. SO please comply with the law so this matter can be handled swiftly. This account ( s ) is unknown to me. Also, the information you provided on these accounts are DELETED from other bureaus and I have doubts in their accuracy and the reported payment history on these accounts are a mystery to me. As required by FCRA 605B ( c ) ( 1 ) ( C ) Authority to decline or rescind.
