Identity Theft Victim Sues for Credit Repair Violations


NEW YORK, Dec. 19, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- A lawsuit has been filed in federal court in Connecticut against a Florida account servicer for alleged violations of the Credit Repair Organizations Act. The lawsuit alleges that the servicer, Superior Asset Management of Clearwater, Florida, failed to delete the T-Mobile cellular phone account from the plaintiff's credit report as promised. The plaintiff, a victim of identity theft, alleges that she never had a T-Mobile account, but the servicer solicited a payment from her in exchange for the deletion of the account, which she needed for a loan refinancing. The lawsuit alleges that Superior Asset kept the plaintiff's payment but failed to correct the credit report as promised. The lawsuit seeks compensatory, statutory and punitive damages. The suit was filed by Robert B. Clark of Clark Law Offices in Trumbull, Connecticut.
