Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Consumer Complaint: I wish to bring to your attention that, as outlined in my complaint dated XX/XX/XXXX, I have noted the non-compliance with the law ( FCRA 605b ) regarding the removal of fraudulent entries associated with FTC fraud reports # XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. In my previous communication, I explicitly conveyed that the failure to remove these specified items, inaccurately reported due to identity theft, would compel me to involve legal representation for appropriate action. It is my sincere intention to avoid legal proceedings, and I emphasize the importance of adherence to the law. In this subsequent complaint, I have once again attached my latest FTC reports for reference : # XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. I reiterate my request for the immediate removal of the fraudulent items, which were opened without my consent or knowledge.
