Complaint Review: CAROL BASKIN BASKIN & BASKIN

CAROL BASKIN, BASKIN & BASKIN FRAUDULENTLY ACCESSED MY CREDIT FILE AND INVADED MY PRIVACY MARIETTA Georgia

  • Reported By:
    ALPHARETTA Georgia
  • Submitted:
    Sat, September 27, 2003
  • Updated:
    Tue, September 30, 2003

Carol Baskin and her law firm, BASKIN & BASKIN, accessed my EQUIFAX credit file WITHOUT my permission. Even if they had a legitimate reason, the FAIR CREDIT REPORTING ACT stipulates that they HAD to notify me of their actions before and/or after they accessed my credit file. They did not!

My privacy has been invaded and the authorities won't help. The FTC says that there are penalties for this but won't enforce them. They say go to your local GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS-they say go to the BBB and back to the FTC or go get a lawyer! HUH?! A FEDERAL law has been violated and they want ME to go get a lawyer and sue them for breaking a FEDERAL law? That's nuts! Where can a citizen go when their privacy has been invaded? I've contacted the DEPT. of JUSTICE, the FTC, the FBI-where now? JUDGE JUDY?

Seriously, I need help here and I suspect that I am not the only person this happens to. Our privacy is routinely invaded by people like this because they feel that nothing will happen to them. Help me stop them and others!!

Thanks Texino for your suggestion, however, there are still some people left in this country that possess a modicom of decent standards and principles. In the big picture of life this may seem insignificant but my privacy has been violated by my EX-WIFE's DIVORCE ATTORNEY who had no right or authority. They simply wanted to ascertain my financial ability to pay them more inflated, spurious legal fees. When they found out that I am still broke from the first "go-round" they backed off. They are cowards and I look forward to a legal confrontation!

By the way, your ethnicity, color, background, etc. has nothing to do with what is right or wrong. Inequity, injustice, violations, etc. know nothing about personal issues.

And another thing, I'll have you know that I am wide awake and happened upon their unauthorized inquiry while in the midst of obtaining a mortgage. Your simplistic and jovial remarks are not appreciated-maybe they work in your country, but not here. Remind yourself why you are here enjoying our freedoms and lifestyle-this is the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, where our system ensures that CRIMINALS should be held accountable, are prosecuted and not coddled!

Hi, it is texino. Please remember that I am a foreign person who is also a different color.

That said, I am also a professional. Okay doaks Jason, so a lawyer has accessed your credit report? Well...?

OK, please tell us why this is so bad and how it makes you damaged.

I, Texino, have called a lawyer just now. He is sitting over at the Oyster Marina having a beer. I asked him if he ever looks at the credit history of clients or potential clients?
He says, "Yes." I say "Why" Lawyer says "Got to see what the situation really is in many types of cases." I say "Jason says lawyers did this and did not tell" Lawyer says "How does he know about it?" I don't know. Lawyer says "Have a beer Texino or go away; this is a big nothing deal."

So there you have it. If this was some kind of joke by me, what would be the point.

Please remember. Texino doesn't care if you hate him or call him a name. He is just available to help people work through problems by suggesting that they do not delude themselves by following some false trail.

In this case, if Jason's only complaint is that a lawyer has accessed his credit history, I would, as a professional, suggests that he just take a nap. Then when he is wide awake, maybe he will think about why there is such thing as a credit reporting agency in the first place and why any business with whom you have spoken with concerning some issue which could require payment on your part, can get the info.

Thank you, Texino
