Credit monitoring or identity protection Problem with fraud alerts Maryland

I have been a victim of multiple cases of identity theft within the last - years. Most recently, i have been a victim of identity theft about - times in the last - months. I have purchased a protection program with Equifax and have set up Fraud Alerts with all - major credit reporting agencies. Even though I have fraud alerts set up, the credit reporting agencies are still authorizing the opening of accounts without my verification. I have had accounts opened in my name with all - credit reporting agencies. Each agency is failing to contact me to verify that I am opening these accounts. This issue has now negatively effected my credit score. I will be filing - separate complaints for each of the - credit reporting agencies. This complaint is specifically for Equifax, as I have purchased their product that charges me $19.00 a month, but reap no benefits of the product except for receiving emails that accounts have been opened in my name.
