Consumer Complaint: Lexis Nexis continues to report an alleged bankruptcy onto my consumer report. This is a violation of my consumer rights as this bankruptcy has not been properly verified as belonging to me. I have repeatedly asked that they provide me with documentation or the person they have spoken to that verified this alleged bankruptcy. ( a ) Identity and purposes of credit users Every consumer reporting agency shall maintain reasonable procedures designed to avoid violations of section 1681c of this title and to limit the furnishing of consumer reports to the purposes listed under section 1681b of this title. These procedures shall require that prospective users of the information identify themselves, certify the purposes for which the information is sought, and certify that the information will be used for no other purpose. Every consumer reporting agency shall make a reasonable effort to verify the identity of a new prospective user and the uses certified by such prospective user prior to furnishing such user a consumer report. No consumer reporting agency may furnish a consumer report to any person if it has reasonable grounds for believing that the consumer report will not be used for a purpose listed in section 1681b of this title. ( b ) Accuracy of report Whenever a consumer reporting agency prepares a consumer report it shall follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of the information concerning the individual about whom the report relates. ( c ) Disclosure of consumer reports by users allowed A consumer reporting agency may not prohibit a user of a consumer report furnished by the agency on a consumer from disclosing the contents of the report to the consumer, if adverse action against the consumer has been taken by the user based in whole or in part on the report.

( 2 ) Responsibilities of procurers for resale A person who procures a consumer report for purposes of reselling the report ( or any information in the report ) shall ( A ) establish and comply with reasonable procedures designed to ensure that the report ( or information ) is resold by the person only for a purpose for which the report may be furnished under section 1681b of this title, including by requiring that each person to which the report ( or information ) is resold and that resells or provides the report ( or information ) to any other person ( i ) identifies each end user of the resold report ( or information ) ; ( ii ) certifies each purpose for which the report ( or information ) will be used ; and ( iii ) certifies that the report ( or information ) will be used for no other purpose ; and ( B ) before reselling the report, make reasonable efforts to verify the identifications and certifications made under subparagraph ( A ). ( 3 ) Resale of consumer report to a Federal agency or department Notwithstanding paragraph ( 1 ) or ( 2 ), a person who procures a consumer report for purposes of reselling the report ( or any information in the report ) shall not disclose the identity of the end-user of the report under paragraph ( 1 ) or ( 2 ) if ( A ) the end user is an agency or department of the United States Government which procures the report from the person for purposes of determining the eligibility of the consumer concerned to receive access or continued access to classified information ( as defined in section 1681b ( b ) ( 4 ) ( E ) ( i ) [ 1 ] of this title ) ; and ( B ) the agency or department certifies in writing to the person reselling the report that nondisclosure is necessary to protect classified information or the safety of persons employed by or contracting with, or undergoing investigation for work or contracting with the agency or department.

Consumer Complaint: My identity was stole. The person opened up several bank accounts in my name and also used my main bank account ( XXXX XXXX ) for fraud. I recently realized that in XXXX and placed a credit lock through XXXX. I know consequences still have to be made but I would like to clear my name so that I could be able to open up a personal bank account. I am aware that I am now in the XXXX XXXX, I would like to be removed. I am willing to do what it takes to move forward with this process. I am a XXXX XXXX and I need a bank account. Thank you.

Consumer Complaint: There is information that on my consumer report that is a result of identity theft. I did not provide written permission of instructions for the identified transactions to be reported on my consumer report. I am requesting that the reporting of this information be blocked and deleted. As a federally protected consumer I'm seeking proof of the alleged debt, under the doctrine of estoppel by silence, XXXX XXXX XXXX ( Mo ) XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, I may presume that no proof of the alleged debt, nor therefore any such debt, in fact exists. In a good faith effort to resolve this matter amicably, I demand for proof of the debt, specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my signature in wet ink, as well as proof of your authority in this matter. Absent such proof, you must terminate this collection action and correct any erroneous reports of this debt as mine. For the record, I state again that as I have no account with you, nor am I your customer, nor have I entered into a contract with you, I must ask for the following information : 1 ) Please evidence your authorization under 15 USC 1692 ( e ) 15 USC 1692 ( f ) and USC 1692 ( g ) in this alleged matter. 2 ) What is your authorization of law for your collection of information? 3 ) What is your authorization of law for your collection of this alleged debt? 4 ) Please evidence your authorization to do business or operate in the state. 5 ) Please provide proof of the alleged debt, including specifically the alleged contract or other instrument bearing my wet signature. You have 7 days of this notice to respond. Your failure to respond, on point, in writing, hand signed, and in a timely manner, will work as a waiver to any and all of your claims in this matter, and will entitle me to presume that you sent your letter ( XXXX ) in error, and that this matter is permanently closed. Your continued silence is unacceptable. Either provide the proof or correct the record to remove the invalid debt from my credit files with the three-primary credit-reporting agencies. You are currently in violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Act. I can't obtain housing or employment due to the violations on my credit file. Failure to respond within 7 days of this letter will begin my small claims action against your company. I will be seeking { {$5000.00} } in damages for the following : 1 ) Defamation 2 ) Negligent Enablement of Identity Fraud 3 ) Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act After obtaining the judgment against your company, I will obtain a Writ of Execution from the Sheriffs office in your county and I will begin the process of attaching property or funds to satisfy the judgment. For the purposes of 15 USC 1692 et seq., this Notice has the same effect as a dispute to the validity of the alleged debt and a dispute to the validity of your claims. I am requesting that the reporting of this information be blocked and deleted. My request to block is not being made in error ; nor is my request to block being made on the basis of a material misrepresentation of fact by me relevant to the request to block the identified transactions. You are in violation under 15 U.S.Code 1681i ( 5 ) removal of Inaccurate/Invalidated Credit Information and 15 U.S.Code 1681 ( e ) ( b ) Compliance procedures maximum possible accuracy & section 604 15 us code 1681 B.
