I like the term "bank slander"[1]. The company that gave a loan to fraudster (a bank) lies to the credit bureau (slander) and now you have to spend a bunch of time trying (and usually failing) to get those lies off your credit report.

Maybe "credit slander"? Including the added bonus of expanding the set of possible perpetrators.
