Consumer Complaint: XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX To whom it may concern : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Re : Midland Funding LLC DBA In New York As Midland Funding of Delaware LLC and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Dear Consumer Complaint Division ] : On about XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed a significant pay decrease in my wages from my current employment at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I quickly went to the management office and requested answers from XXXX XXXX XXXX she proceeded to tell me that she had received a pay garnishment. I explained I had never been served with a judgment a summons or a complaint were not served at all, and I had not been given a fair chance to respond and asked her how this was possible and why wasnt I notified by anyone at my employment prior to beginning this garnishment. She responded she didnt know. I desperately asked her for a copy of the notice, and she rudely refused to give me a copy and just gave me the phone number to the Sherriff dept., who has ordered them to proceed with the judgment. I quickly contacted this phone number and complained about not even being notified in any way and asked to please send this notice to my address, I then received it by regular mail dated XXXX XXXX XXXX This company I do not know anything about has stated that I owe them a debt from XX/XX/XXXX, claiming the amount of {$3000.00}, and they have proceeded in garnishing 10 % of my gross bi-weekly wages. About {$230.00}. If correct. I believe this is an identity theft the name in this judgment that shows my name as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which was my marriage last name, and I was divorced this same year, it also shows XXXX XXXX XXXX whom I have no relation with at all. I am a single parent struggling to make ends meet and my checking account has been charging me overdraft fees continuously. I am using other credit cards in trying to keep up. I am in desperate need of help and would like this identity theft stopped and my garnishments returned. I would appreciate any help in this desperate situation. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt is not yours

Consumer Complaint: I notice the company put a derogatory account on my credit report without contacting me properly. I have reason to believe I do not owe this debt because the company was contacted by bankruptcy court as being included in bankruptcy and I also had questions about the account and I filed a identity theft report. The company did not give me the opportunity to address this before putting on my credit report.

Consumer Complaint: I reported this company XXXX XXXXXXXX on my identity theft report quite some time ago as this was an account that did not belong to me. The charges were removed from my credit report, now suddenly Midland credit management is attempting to collect on this XXXX XXXXXXXX account that was reported as a fraudulent account so it seems as though credit one has sold this account to someone else in an attempt to collect a debt that doesnt belong to me, this is illegal.
