Attempts to collect debt not owed

Debt collection: Other debt

Debt was result of identity theft
Complaint: I've sent multiple letters to this agency about this not being my account. After being advised by identitytheft.gov I've completed and sent a fraud affidavit via certified mail. I can see they received it but nothing has changed. See supporting documents. even the USPS tracking. I am a victim of identity theft and noticed a collection from NATIONAL CREDIT SYS. I've attempted to dispute multiple times, however, no response on their end. Not sure what else to do. The police department told me to contact the federal trade commission which I wrote a formal complaint against NATIONAL CREDIT SYS in regards to this matter. The FTC also instructed me to complete and theft affidavit through identity theft.gov. Attached is my document. Thank you

Complaint: In XX/XX/2018 I moved out of the apartment complex, " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' located at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AZ XXXX. The address I vacated was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX AZ XXXX. The unit was referred to as XXXX with the unit being the letter XXXX not the number XXXX. We gave our forwarding address to the management of XXXX XXXX XXXX so that they could contact us if there were any problems. The management of XXXX XXXX XXXX never contacted any of the lease holders, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX or myself XXXX XXXX XXXX. Months later I received a collection call from a company asking me to pay for damages. Our apartment was not damaged, and the XXXX XXXX XXXX was and is on my Renter 's Insurance through XXXX as a interested party. The complex could have filed a claim through Renter 's Insurance if there was a legitimate damage. XXXX confirmed that no claim had ever taken place. XXXX XXXX XXXX was non responsive to any attempts at communication. XXXX XXXX XXXX and their agent in debt recovery never took correct action after the debt was disputed. They never showed any record or proof of damages only that they had a bill from a company. I never agreed to nor did I ever see the alleged damage. Furthermore I never received an opportunity to pay damages before the debt was reported on credit. The debt collection company refused to pull the debt from my credit. XXXX XXXX XXXX reported no forwarding address to the collection agency that was used, yet they had a forwarding address and never sent correspondence to that address or used any telecommunication or legitimate communications means to discuss the debt with any responsible party. My suggested resolution is to have the debt pulled from all credit reports and payment will be made with certified funds to XXXX XXXX XXXX within 30 days of receipt of credit correction.

Debt was result of identity theft
Complaint: To whom it may concern, I am writing this to see if someone can help me. i been contacting leasing offices, debt collectors and more pleading my case. i seen years ago i had a apartment show up on my credit report. And once i noticed i submitted multiply disputes to handle the situation and nothing has happened. when speaking to others they have told me there is nothing that i can do and it would remain til i pay it. so for years i done nothing. Then i still tried to apply to apartments and they have all denied me. I cant even get a place to stay so currently i am XXXX. All because of some incorrect information on my credit report. The last time i contacted the apartment people they had advised me that the apartment people no longer own the apartment and they also couldn't help me. i have also contacted the previous apartment company they have not gotten back to me. so now Im pleading my case to you because i need help. Im being punished for something i didn't do. also i asked the credit people what they were using to verify it was me. and they saying that they just matching information. I was robbed years back and they stole my wallet which included my personal items. so i feel someone used it and purchased the apartment..

Threatened or suggested your credit would be damaged
Complaint: This is my SECOND attempt at resolving this claim. I was last referred to fill out a Identity Theft Report. This report is NOT VALID as this is not Identity Theft. The account is NOT UNDER MY SOCIAL or birthdate. This is NOT IDENTITY THEFT. The company doesn't have my social OR BIRTHDATE. NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEMS INC, showed up on my credit report with an original creditor of XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately called the apartment complex listed, and was told that the company, XXXX XXXX was no longer the owner, and that it had not been for over a year. I was then given a number to the PREVIOUS owner, and they stated they had no record of me in their system, nor a debt. I then called National Credit Systems. National Credit Systems could not locate the information based on my social OR birth-date. There was a file under the name XXXX XXXX but, it was not my social or birth-date. Within days, my phone number ( which was recorded during my call in ), was used to call repeatedly about the debt from an " attorney ''. This " attorney '' would basically try to verify my social .... verify he didn't have my social OR birth-date, but then threaten to see me in court and hang up. I called the previous owner of XXXX XXXX and the current owner AGAIN and both verified they have NO ONE by my social or birth-date in collections with them. I finally got a hold of a manageXXXX at NATIONAL CREDIT SYSTEMS who verified that the file had was not my birth-date OR social ... but that it was MY responsibility to prove to them that I lived somewhere else during the time of this debt. They also refuse to DISCUSS the account with me because I can't verify the SOCIAL that they have. Somehow, throughout all of this, it is STILL being reported to my credit bureau, even with them not knowing my social. This is not me, not my information, just a common name. Also, they continuously call and threaten, and hang up .... I shouldn't have to send them MORE of my information when something as simple as the SOCIAL is not the same.

Complaint: I lived at XXXX XXXX XXXX for 11 years from XXXX to XXXX paying rent as agreed. A portion of my rent ( 30 % ) was subsidized by XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( section 8 ) who inspects the houses to make sure they are up to the Public Housing Agency ( PHA ) standards. After living here for 11 years and in order for me to continue living there, the ( PHA ) Housing Agent in charge of inspections requested that due to wear and tear, certain items needed replacement, a new carpet, new refrigerator and replacement of certain parts of the kitchen counter. XXXX XXXX XXXX administrator agreed to the replacements but then tried to charge me for the cost of these items. After many attempts for them to remove the charges, I seek legal aid and the resolution by the Judge was dismissal of all charges liberating me from the debt. After the judgement I did not renew the lease and moved out. Now that I am trying to rent or buy my own place, realized that XXXX XXXX filed an eviction complaint against me when I had already left the apartment per contract and on the date I was supposed to leave.This appears on my credit report as an eviction and as if I owe them for something I don't even know what it is. I believe this was in retaliation for the judgement in my favor. In the court documents attached please notice the date of the ruling from the judge in my favor is XX/XX/XXXX and the final judgment for possession is XX/XX/XXXX. I moved out XX/XX/XXXX.
