QUESTION
How do I remove/resolve a fraudulent loan that is still on my credit report?
Asked on Feb 22nd, 2020 on Collections - Florida
More details to this question:
I was the victim of loan fraud whereas 3 loans were taken out in my name. The loans with Discover and Sallie Mae have already been resolved in my favor, but a loan with SoFi has been turned over to a collection agency. Despite giving them the same information as I gave the other two lenders, including the name of the detective who resolved the other cases, they continue to say that I have not provided them with enough evidence to proceed with a fraud claim. I have now filed 3 times - once with SoFi and twice with the collection agency and followed all of their procedures.

You will probably need to retain a lawyer to sue them over the reporting/collection effort, but will likely needto make sure you have evidenc to prove the fraud account beyond a mere police investigation. Hopefully they are able to ID the perp and their prosecution will be very helpful.
