Thank you for this, I had no idea this was a thing. Out of curiosity how did you find out about this?
Seems to be an Equifax product.
It’s maddening that these companies give out service with wrong variations of my name and no ID but then want me to jump through hours of hoops to get it removed from collections.
Luckily I got it all resolved prior to rates shooting up so I was able to refi at all time low rates or this would have cost me a lot of money.
