Found an AR (soft inquiry) on my TU and EQ that looked suspicious, two different companies. Got the contact info from TU and EQ, wrote them and guess what - letter returned, addressee unknown. One is very recent, the other back in June. Deletion is not critical, but I don't like the smell of this. Should I start some fraud alert over this? Will that help get other inqs (hard?) deleted as a side effect, or will there be a pox on my CR if I yell "possible identity theft" in a crowded credit reporting agency? Are there possible violations if I don't use the f word and keep pushing them to identify these mysterious companies that are pulling ARs w/out any real credentials?
Re: No Such Company: twice AR w/out George, they're soft inquiries, so removal doesn't get me much. I AM worried about bogus companies pulling my info - this was not a PRM, it was an AR.
Re: Re: No Such Company: twice AR w/out "IF" they really are BOGUS...the CRA(s) would like to know...and at the same time they can remove the inquires...EVEN IF THEY ARE SOFT!!!
