Default Re: Victim of ID Theft fraud?

auto answer:

If you believe that you are a victim of identity theft or credit fraud, it is recommended that you take the following steps:

Contact any one of the three major credit bureaus (Equifax, TransUnion, Experian) and request that a fraud alert be placed on your credit file. Once the credit bureau is notified, they will notify the other bureaus.
Notify the credit card issuer of the stolen card (if applicable)
Notify the bank of the stolen checks or check card (if applicable)
File a police report
Contact the Social Security Administration if someone is using your Social Security number
Contact the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) hotline 800-438-4338 and file a complaint. The FTC has an ID Theft Affidavit that you can download from their Web site.
Check your credit report for any accounts that you do not recognize. Check this periodically since some accounts are not reflected immediately.
