I went on line with Equifax Credit Bureau to dispute a incorrect item on my credit report and instead of starting an investigation Equifax sent me a letter stating that they were putting a " fraud Alert '' on my credit profile and notified the other XXXX credit reporting bureaus to do the same. I did not request Equifax to put a " Fraud Alert '' on my credit profile nor did I give them permission. I requested an investigation into a item on my credit profile by law they are required to do. I want Equifax to remove the " Fraud Alert '' and notify the other bureaus that they notified and remove the same. This is the XXXX or XXXX complaint I have filed against this Bureau. If I ca n't get any help I will obtain an attorney and file a lawsuit against Equifax. I am still unable to receive my online free credit report. I am always told to send in the mail for my report. I am entitle to be able to download my report once I accurately verify the questions. I have asked the CFPB to investigate this XXXX and you have taken the word of this company that their is no block preventing me from accessing and downloading my credit report. Equifax is the only bureau that I have problems. I want this " fraud Alert '' removed immediately and I would like verification that this has been done.
