I was the victim of identity theft in XXXX and XXXX 2014. Someone tried to open - and successfully did open - many credit cards in my name. After I got a call asking to confirm whether I had applied for an account, I realized what was happening and placed freezes on my accounts with the credit bureaus, contacted every credit card company I saw popping up on my credit report and every company that called or mailed me, and then filed a police report. 
XXXX and XXXX have removed all the fraudulent accounts and inquiries from my credit reports there, but Equifax refuses to remove XXXX items, a fraudulent account at XXXX and a fraudulent inquiry from XXXX, from my report, even after I have filed several disputes ( # XXXX, XXXX, XXXX etc. ) providing documentation that they are fraudulent, and even after XXXX and XXXX have XXXX each asked that they remove these items from my files. This is Equifax 's response each time I ask them to investigate the matter : & gt ; & gt ; & gt ; We have researched the credit account. Account # XXXX The results are : We verified that this item belongs to you. If you have additional questions about this item please contact : XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, DE XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXX & gt ; & gt ; & gt ; We have reviewed the inquiry information for XXXX XXXX XXXX. The results are : Inquiries are a factual record of file access. Should you have reason to believe this inquiry was unauthorized, Please contact the creditor directly and follow their internal fraud procedures. If you have additional questions about this item please contact : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, UT XXXX Phone : ( XXXX ) XXXXPlease help me get these fraudulent items off my account! I have a letter from XXXX, attached. Unfortunately XXXX procedure is to submit electronic requests to Equifax, so I do n't have a letter from them to attach, but you can contact them and they will confirm the account is fraudulent.
