Avoid Future Identity Theft

#2Consumer Suggestion

First of all, I am sorry this happened to you. I had a similar incident a few years ago. Call the credit card company with the account number from your credit report and tell them you suspect your identity has been compromised. Then ask them for a copy of the original card application to be mailed or faxed to you. Then file a police report. Once you do all this contact the card issuers, send them the police report, ask them to remove your name from the card and to remove thos eitems from yoiur credit report. You will probably have to send this information to each of the issuers Fraud Prevention Departments. They will work with you to get this resolved. In the future shred documents and put them in sealed trash bags. Protect your identity online as well by not responding to anyone's email or phone inquiry for information. Anyone legitimately contacting you regarding accounts, financial info, etc. will already have your information and will not need you to verify anything. Hope this helps.
