I am submitting a formal complaint about fraudulent information on my credit report resulting from identity theft. I submitted a block and delete request 3 times to Equifax under 15 U.S. Code 1681c2, including my FTC Identity Theft Report and all necessary documents. However, Equifax has failed to comply with its legal obligation to delete the fraudulent information within four business days.Equifaxs repeated boilerplate responses requesting the same documentation, despite prior receipt, clearly demonstrate an attempt to stall compliance with federal law. This conduct is not only unacceptable, but constitutes a violation of:15 U.S. Code 1681c2 (failure to block identity theft-related data after valid request),15 U.S. Code 1681i(a)(1)(A) (failure to conduct a lawful reinvestigation of disputed information), and 15 U.S. Code 1681n and 1681o (liability for willful or negligent noncompliance with the FCRA).This is now my final notice after three prior attempts via certified mail. Despite being told over the phone that my documentation was received, I was later told it was not. I demand immediate action on the following:Credit First (CRDT FIRST) remains on the report with derogatory status.They are in violation of FCRA 1681c2 (failure to block identity theft information), 1681i(a)(5)(B) (unlawful reinsertion of deleted data), and potentially 1681n and 1681o (civil liability for willful and negligent noncompliance). I have documented each instance and will use this information in my complaints to the ***** FTC, and legal counsel.I have now complied multiple times with all your requests and exceeded the legal requirements necessary under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.Furthermore, I have evidence that the fraudulent information has been reinserted on more than one occasion without prior written notice, in violation of 15 U.S. Code 1681i(a)(5)(B).Customer Answer
