Latest Victim Of Idenity Theft: ME!

[Ghoulish Delight]

More than getting a credit report, you should be able to get a watch put on your credit so that if anyone tries to open a line of credit or bank account or whatever, a flag will pop up and they will call you to verify.

Scary stuff, glad the douche was caught before it caused trouble for you.

p.s. Name change form? Making "Isaac" official?

Hehe. Yes. Unofficially it has always officially been my name only a bit more centered than to the left. That changed last year in March

My identity got stolen from a guy who robbed my storage unit with his family. They actually lived in their unit. They stole my receipt box that I kept for tax purposes. From there he opened a credit account with Dell and bought a laptop. The APR for the account was 26%! I had to sign a legal form saying it wasn't me and then it was removed from my credit report. The cop wouldn't tell me if he was caught or not. They said it would have violated his privacy if they told me. (!!!)
Sheesh.
I know exactly what kind of frustration zappp's going through. It ain't fun.

Let's all check our credit reports, shall we?
