Back several years ago when I went thru identity theft, the police told me to never write checks or use a debit card. They said to use credit cards because if they get your debit card number they can clean you out. Someone had my driver's license number and I had not even lost it. They had counterfiet checks made and used my first name, changed middle name and used last name. What a mess. It took a while to finally get it all straight but putting fraid alert on the three credit places is something you need to do. Hope it works out fast for you. It can be a pain. We found out later that some people at the driver's license bureau had been fired for selling license numbers. That is probably what happened to me. |
