I am XXXX XXXX XXXX that works for a company that helps victims of ID Theft to clear up fraudulent matters. I obtain a Limited Power of Attorney in order to help these vicitims clear up fraudulent matters. I disputed an account last year with USAA for one of my members. We were advised last year the account was cleared. This year it got sent to collections. After spending more than three hours on the phone USAA advised today the account was in a charge off status not a fraud status. I tried to work with the fraud department today to see if we could get the status corrected. USAA could verify my POA On file, but insistied they would not talk to me unless I provided my PERSONAL social security number and date of birth for verification purposes. I told them I was not related to the member, this was n't my account and for security purposes I was not comfortable giving them my social. They said I had to, so I made up a number and told them I was doing so. Then they tell me they have access to background information and the number did not come back as valid and they would not talk to me. I never authorized them to check background information on me. I never authorized anything. I cant believe for security reasons a fraud department is asking for social security number of PROFESSIONALS not financially obligated to the account. This needs to be stopped and now we ca n't resolve a fraudulent account which is against FAIR DEBT COLLECTION Practices and their regulations because I wo n't give my social. The client, is hard of hearing and ca n't speak. HIs wife, handles all the financial affairs. They wont talk to her either. The member signed a power of attorney so that I could help him and I cant. I went to XXXX at USAA dept supervisor and she refused to find a different way to resolve this.
