Boy, what a mess. This started a few years back when my brother and his wife forged a couple of checks on my business checking account. I found out and pressed charges. Anyway, over the years, my brother has continued to use my name and SSN while at doctor's offices, etc. Now I find out that while he was in Oklahoma (I live in Colorado), he was arrested for theft. I was reading the court documents online last night. He used my name!!! So now I have a felony conviction in Oklahoma. How in the world can this happen? I thought it was bad enough trying to clear all of his bogus activity off my credit reports, now I have this to contend with. I don't have a clue as to what to do. Mike
I'd start by placing a fraud alert with the CRAs. Then I'd file a complaint with the cops where he was arrested. Protect yourself as best you can. Gib
I would go to the POLICE DEPARTMENT (IN COLORADO) or the F.B.I. and ask them if they could give you any advise... On a POLICE show on TV a guy has a "COURT ORDER" stating he was not the person wanted with the same name...(or some such words)... They may suggest you "GET FINGER PRINTED" and that will prove that case is NOT you...but for the future???? FRAUD ALERT WITH SSA FRAUD ALERT WITH THE CRA'S DON'T GO TO OKLAHOMA FOR ANY REASON
