Consumer Complaint: I have been a victim of identity-theft on XX/XX/XXXX and from that point on, I have been battling with unauthorized accounts being opened in my name, which one of the accounts was opened on XX/XX/XXXX, which is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, and a 30-Day late payment, which was unauthorized by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX which is on a mortgage account on my credit file. These discrepancies are violating my rights under 15 USC 1681b and 15 U.S. Code 1681c-2. Therefore, Equifax is violating my rights and is still reporting these fraudulent accounts/ discrepancies on my credit file, which is a violation of my rights. Also, I have disputed these account several times, and when I called in a numerous of times, the representative says that they do not have my documentation that I sent in overnight certified mail, where I do have tracking numbers. Therefore, there is some unnecessary processes going on with Equifax and if these accounts are not removed from my credit file, then I will be filing a lawsuit and seeking damages of {$1000.00} per occurrence. Please correct this issue and comply with the law. Thanking you in advance!
