    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    I inquired about a car I saw online. After deciding I would not purchase the car and would like to discontinue communication with Dave, my credit has been ran over and over everyday since without my permission. My credit score dropped 50 points over the past few days since blocking him from calling me. He was harassing me which caused me to block him. I made it very clear I was uninterested in moving forward with my purchase. I decided to do research and read reviews and realized this has been done to many people not just me. The nonstop phone calls were just too much and after blocking him… I get credit alerts multiple times a day saying there has been an inquiry into my credit from Sound Auto Wholesalers. I had to put a freeze on my credit. This is criminal behavior and he needs to be stopped. Please help me. I do t know what else to do at this point.
