Consumer Narrative
My personal information was left in my wallet, which I unfortunately was pick pocket at a shopping mall. I am a victim of Identity Theft & XXXX Data Breach. Despite my immediate and repeated attempts to retrieve it by contacting the mall on the same day and subsequently, my wallet was never recovered from the thieves. Upon realizing this, I decided to pull my credit report because I'm in need for a car very badly, and to my dismay, I discovered unauthorized collections accounts and hard inquiries that do not belong to me. XXXX. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX Co XX/XX/XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX My credit report shows a collection from your agency with a balance of {$1100.00}. I was never notified of this collection. Whats more, I do not believe this debt is accurate. I am not liable for the debt with XXXX XXXX XXXX, I do not have a contract with XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX and when I requested, they provided me with the original contract over an month ago, they did not give me one. This has been an ongoing battle for me, spanning over XXXX long years. I urgently request the removal of these erroneous entries from my credit report immediately. I am currently in the process of securing a new car and a home for both myself and my XXXX daughters who I have full custody of, as we face the threat of homelessness. Under the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT, I have the right to request and receive validation of the debt. Additionally, I would like to emphasize the importance of upholding the credit repair law as outlined in 15 U.S. Code 1681 and FCRA 605B ( 15 U.S.C. 1681c-2 ). I have not supplied proof under the doctrine of estoppel by silence. Engelhardt v. Gravens ( mo ) 281 SW 715.719. I presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in face therefore exists. Your cooperation in rectifying these discrepancies is greatly appreciated.
