Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: Midland Credit has sent me paperwork for this account, but they are bills/statements that show payments were made. There is no contract, no address verification, no name verification, IS or anything sent that provides that this account belongs to me. Statements do not prove that it is me. I am not aware of what account was used to make these payments or anything. The address and the name are slightly off as well. My middle initial is not included as reflected on my credit report and the address is missing a number. Again, please remove this fraudulent account from my report asap. Ive disputed this several times already. Thank you, XXXX

Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed

Subissue: Debt is not yours

Consumer Complaint: Once again Im not liable for this debt that you say I owe, You have not showed a direct contract with the financial intitution that says you are authorized to collect for them you are just showing that you bought a debt this does not makes me liable to a third party company this is not a contract. This was a charged off account and is considered income and income can not be reported in a credit report because it turned to a certificate of indebtness. So let me know if they comitted securities fraud or you are violating my rights under 15 usc 1681b because i have never authorized you to furnish your tradeline to my credit report also you dont meet any circumstances to furnish information.
