Mistakes Plague Most Credit Reports
Evidence of fraud: If there is evidence of fraud on your reports -- accounts that you never opened or accounts with greater-than-expected balances -- contact the credit-reporting companies immediately to put a fraud alert on your report. Next, close the fraudulent accounts and file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission using its online complaint form. Also consider filing a report with your local police department and make sure to keep a copy of the report for your records.
