I disputed fraudulent charges on my credit card account ( the " Account '' ) with Macy 's American Express ( " AX '' ), originally in the amount of {$1200.00} ( plus any finance and late fee charges ). I advised AX both in writing and over the phone on numerous occasions that I was a victim of identity theft, and I did not make or authorize these charges, and immediately upon notifying of these charges I contacted AX to let them know that these charges were not mine. In fact, I had not used that credit card for such a long time, if at all. Over the past six months, I requested that these charges be removed, that any finance and other charges related to the fraudulent amount be credited, as well, and that I receive an accurate statement showing that I owed no amount on account of the Account. Not only these charges were not removed, AZ continued sending me statements adding penalty and interest and send the account to a collection department. When I call them to follow up, the representatives indicate that the account is still under review but that they can not stop the interest and penalty from accruing. 
Unfortunately, this inaccurate information has affected my credit score which was over XXXX. I have previously discussed this matter with the Company 's Fraud Department at least on five separate occasions and they have informed me that these fraud charges will remain on my account and may affect my credit until this matter is fully investigated and resolved. Please be advised that this practice is in violation of Fair Credit Reporting Act ( " FCRA '' ). 
Under the FCRA, these disputed and fraudulent items should not appear on my credit report if they can not be supported by any evidence. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, if the Company can not verify the debt within 30 days, then it must be removed. Based on the foregoing, I hereby request that you look into this matter and abuse this practice by Macy 's American Express. 
I truly need you help to stop the illegal and abusive practice of AX in the manner described above.
