Consumer Narrative
Hello i'm writing regarding account on my credit reports that do not belong to me and was opened fraudulently i tried to handle the issue with credit bureaus but not a big help its still there.I checked my credit report and they had a wrong date of birth and addresses there to which i sent credit bureaus copy of my driver license with my real date of birth and an ftc report in which they did not responded and the account still remains on my report dramatically lowering my credit score.I will go ahead and attach the FTC report to my complaint and i expect credit bureaus to block inaccurate information.I also went ahead and talked to the creditor and found out that whatever information they have on their end the account that was opened under my social security number did not match with my date of birth or address that i reside on
