      I am writing to urgently address inaccuracies on my credit report caused by the unauthorized release of my personal information to credit bureaus, which has led to considerable financial and emotional distress. Under 15 USC 1681 Section 602, I am entitled to financial privacy, and I expect my information to be treated with the utmost confidentiality. Additionally, 15 USC 1681 Section 604(a)(2) clearly states that a consumer reporting agency cannot disclose account details without my explicit consent, which I have not provided. The discrepancies linked to WEBSTER FIRST FED CRED have adversely affected my financial standing, requiring immediate correction. Furthermore, 15 USC 1666(b) prohibits creditors from marking credit card payments as late under specific conditions. For your reference, here are my account details: Account Number: **********I request a comprehensive review of my account and a prompt correction of these errors in compliance with federal laws. Failure to resolve these issues promptly may result in legal action. I look forward to your immediate attention to this matter. Sincerely,****** ******
