A request for CR blocking of asserted identity theft information, if it meets the requirements of section 60B, such as a copy of the identity theft/police report and proper proof of identity, must be honored by the CRA.
It is NOT a dispute over accuracy of credit reporting and requires no supporting documenation of an inaccurcy other than your sworn assertion, and to treat it as a dispute under section 611(a) is simply improper.
The furnisher most likely has reasonable basis for verifying that you are the party who authorized the account, and thus verification of a dispute is likely.
The entire reason that congress implemented the identity theft blockage provision is to avoid any factual issues of disputes over the accuracy.
A sworn assertion before a law enfrcement agency, which carries criminal penalties for knowingly false statements, is sufficient to obtain CR blockage.
To treat as a dispute is contrary to the entire purpose of the FCRA identity theft process, and is, in my opinion, a serious violation of consumer rights to CR blocage that should be reported to the FTC.
