well, call the credit card company and find out the mailing address that the card goes to. call the local authorities there and arrest the bastard
next check all of your own cards.

well its not too bad....they only opened one cc, and i put a fraud alert....on my account so nothing else can happen, credit bureau system is down for transunion who contacts all of them. i called the local authorities where they are located, they opened up a 500 cc account and only used 109 dollars so far. but i hope their ass gets arrested soon.

thank Gosh i did a credit protection offer, and caught it soon, they opened it on may 22 of this year, so didnt happen too long ago.
