ID Theft, What fun!

I have been there and I am still digging out of it. What your not hearing anywhere is the person who took your ID may be as close as a near relative.

1. Check your credit

2. Call the Social Security Administration and let them know. Have your named flagged with everyone.

3. Banks and stores, anywhere you might have credit, pay off credit cards cut them up DON'T get any more until you clear your name, these places sell your information.

4. Go to as many as you can free search engines look for yourself. Why? Because you might be as lucky as I was, I found myself living in nine places. 3 of thoses places was where a sister in law had been and the last one she was still living there. A quick call to the attorney found she was scamming one of my sons and others as well. She was not the only one with my ID she passed it to her friends too.

What do you mean by "Go to as many as you can free search engines look for yourself." I would like to do this myself but not sure what you mean to do. Thanks Roberta.

You are putting out great advice! I am now dealing with this issues,and it is a exhausting nightmare. I think asking questions of others that may have suggestions you did not think of, because I am losing my mind. The best answer to me. Lots of your own research learning as much as you can on the free websites and Google your name and see what you find. If you can find a site that will let someone do a reverse phone number lookup, that is how I found the person I believe is my biggest nightmare right now. They somehow have access ro my number I have it too. How does that work? I found looking onl8nr at a county website fir property taxes and names. It is there you just have to dig deep to find that information sometimes. Good luck. Thank you.
