I've contacted PP, and had them close the account only thing there is a balance still in that account so they have forward "my debt" to a collecting agency. I've put a fraud alert in my file to prevent this again and have asked the credit bureaus to send me a credit report.
So my question is what proof do I need to file a police report?
Because if I want detailed information about the fraud to file a dispute with collecting agencies and PayPal I need a police report, but to file a police report I need the detailed information about the fraud first!!

My ex did such a thing, and did not give me my half of the money. I Cali, it is considered a "wabbler" law, meaning it could either be considered a felony or misdemeanor. If so, I'll be contacting the Federal Trade Commission regarding the issue. ]]> Identity Theft pachuco http://www.fixmyuglycredit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30500 http://www.fixmyuglycredit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30499&goto=newpost Thu, 03 May 2012 04:11:43 GMT I just found out my identity was stolen. what do i need to do now?

Within 15 minutes, I got three calls from three different insurance agencies claiming that I put in an online request for an auto insurance quote. One agent told me the make and model of the supposed car, which is a car I do not own. For all three, I told them to erase/ignore the quote request.

I became more and more nervous throughout the day, so I went and pulled my credit reports. Everything seems to be in order. No mistakes that I can see (except for the insurance agencies in the "inquiry" sections). Credit score has not changed either.

Also, checked bank accounts and credit cards. Everything is in order. No funny charges or anything like that.

What should I do now? There doesn't seem to be anything going on at the moment, but I'm still nervous about the whole situation.

It was on one of those PDF's that you can print out but not save anything to it. I'm in the middle of a transfer so I had to turn in this form to my future employer (it's with a government agency so it's not a scam). But the scanner at my office wasn't working so I had to get the document scanned at Office Max and they put it on an external hard drive for me.

But now I'm worried the employees at Office Max will steal my identity. The form had my social security number on it. I asked them to delete my document from their office computer and they say they delete all customer files. But who knows if they actually deleted it?

What do you think? Should my SSN be safe or do you think I jeopardized my safety by paying to have my documents scanned at Office Max?
