Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: I have diligently followed the established dispute process, providing evidence of the fraudulent nature of these items, such as police reports, affidavits, and any other relevant documents. However, despite these efforts, the fraudulent entries remain unchanged on my credit report. I wish to bring to your attention the following concerns : The presence of these fraudulent items has not only affected my credit score but has also led to potential identity theft concerns. This poses a serious threat to my financial well-being and personal security. The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ) mandates that consumer reporting agencies ensure the accuracy and privacy of the information they report. It is evident that the fraudulent items on my credit report are a clear violation of this mandate. It appears that the credit bureau has not conducted a thorough investigation into my disputes. I urge you to initiate a comprehensive and detailed review of the fraudulent entries, promptly taking corrective actions as required by law. I kindly request your immediate attention to this matter and a swift resolution to remove the fraudulent items from my credit report. Please provide information on the steps being taken to investigate and correct this issue. I expect a written response within 30 days, as required by the FCRA, outlining the results of your investigation and the actions taken to rectify the fraudulent entries. Failure to address this issue within the specified timeframe will compel me to escalate this matter further through legal channels. I am asking for your assistance to remove these fraudulent items in my credit file : 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 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 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
