Latest Victim Of Idenity Theft: ME!

Haha! I forgot about the flag! I put one on myself the last time I had "identity theft issues." (It's happened twice - once because I had my purse stolen out from next to the chair I was sitting in *years* ago, and just a handful of years ago someone busted into my car when I thought I was hiding my purse enough... never, ever again.)

The best part about my flag was that I'd bought my Exploder three days before someone took a screwdriver to my door, ripping out the lock and electronics in the door. Because all the paperwork hadn't gone through, it got caught up in a "red flag" and I was contacted a handful of times over that one, having to provide additional proof of who I was.

Worth it though, and I was happy to know it actually worked. I red flagged myself!
