Equifax Credit reporting department,
Improper use of my credit report Report improperly shared by CRC Nevada
ON - -, 2016, - alerted me that applications had been made with my social security number. -/-/16, -/-/16 - -There were - applications made, my FICO took a dump from - to -, then to - ... I was FURIOUS. I 'M A - with 28 years in -. I understand the mechanics of credit. I FROZE ALL MY CREDIT ON - -, 2016. I put a consumer alert and a 90-day alert, while I was getting the police report filed. I was promised that NO CREDIT would be issued under a freeze. I was promised that creditors wo n't issue credit with consumer alerts .... I 'M IN THE THROES of this and I 've gone from shock to absolute anger. I 'm a very aware woman and quite capable
weeks after I had already contacted : 1. I contacted all creditors of fraud day 3-5, insisting they immediately contact credit reporting agencies and remove promptly ( all info I received from - ). 2. I froze all my credit day 3 from fraud initiated. 3. I put 90 day alerts plus consumer alerts day 3 from fraud alert 4. Police reports within 5 days 5. I now discovered that New Account - -- reported a new account on your EQUIFA- Credit Report. They had a $120.00 FEE that went to my reports. All - of them. This company is fraudulent in actions. The credit agencies? My credits frozen and this account was NOT APPROVED PRIOR TO. I 'm very aggressive at this time since I 'm tired of paying people to protect me and they do n't. System failure is running rampant. I am a - and highly trained in -. Again, the name of the applicant is not my name w/my social. Red flag for the creditor? Or, they just have blinders on or asleep at the wheel? I was notified on - -, 2016 of a new account from Equifax! I railed the creditor! On -/-/16, the - other agencies reported new credit with a $120.00 fee ( the creditors fee )! I called the creditor and expressed the " illegal '' aspects of this. I said, " get this off my report, now! '' Additionally, all - agencies are reporting with a FREEZE and consumer alerts on my account. The credit card was in the name of " - -. '' My name is - - - and my social is not tied to his name. I 'm sick of this carelessness, the credit reporting agencies and their reporting, but NO INVOLVEMENT. They should not have this type of power and be unaware. No.
