Leaders for identity theft matters
If you’re worried that someone is using your personal information to get credit, goods, or services under your name, trying to find out what has happened—as well as figuring out what to do next—can seem like an overwhelming task.
Common types of identity theft:
- Fraudulent use of debit and credit cards
- Claiming to be someone else at the scene of a crime
- Check forgery
Steps to take when you suspect identity theft:
- Review credit reports
- Secure accounts
- Create and use an identity theft report
- File a police report
- Check for fraudulent use of your social security number
- Inform the other creditors about the theft
If you have tried all of these items and not had success, it may be time to consult an attorney for identity theft near you. A consumer protection attorney can assist you with dealing with your financial matters, dealing with debt collectors, or getting the credit reporting agencies to delete fraudulent information from your credit report after an identity thief gets credit in your name.
