Ok, here is the story: Someone has been using my name and SSN to obtain credit cards and other services.
After getting a credit report, I contacted every place on the report in which an account was set up recently. Eventually, I finally got someone nice enough to provide a phone number, cell number, and address (for future reference, it helps to play dumb while asking for this info - everytime I was business-like-serious, the reply was always "I cant give out that information").
The cell phone got shut down, since it was set up under my name. I didn't even get a chance to call it. :/
The home number was unlisted, and answers with a generic answering machine. I didn't leave a message.
I posted fraud alerts to all of the credit verification companies.
I submitted a mail fraud form to the post office.
So, the next step was to confirm information about the apartment. Using methods which I dont want to reveal, it turns out that someone lives in that building with the same first initial, last name as myself.
I got the phone number of this person. A reverse lookup of this number gives a different name, but same address.
Ok, so now I have a good phone number of someone I suspect. I was going to call, but I'm not sure what to say. Any suggestions?
