Re: Been there done that...EDITED

Yes, the F.B.I. says it's the fastest growing crime in America. With every year that passes, it doubles (on average). There is no more honor like there was when we grew up, no more conscience, and no more pride in one's work. Integrity has been lost to commerce and technology.


Alot of ID theft is committed with the names of the deceased, but most for money from the living. I investigated the ID theft of my mother and stepfather by another family member and it all started because of a dumb clerk at the phone company (sent to a P.O. Box connected to a street address along with an illegal family name combination).

It would probably cost me about $50,000 to take her to court and two years time in court. No law enforcement wants to prosecute. So, take it very seriously and watch where your personal info is (guard it).

She won't do it to me, she knows I'm onto her (called her unlisted cell number listed to one of her different addresses and asked to speak to her aliases).

True credit will monitor all three credit bureaus for your credit report and Intelius will also with their ID Watch.
