Id Theft Accounts - Georgia Consumers From: http://www.bbbonline.org/idtheft/stories.asp Article #1: "I received a piece of mail from (a credit card) thanking me for 'your recent application for a credit card issued through (a bank). They were requesting that I send them a copy of my social security card, driver's license and school ID. I did not submit an application. Further, when I called they stated that they did not have any information on me that would indicate an application had been filed. Had I been stupid enough to send the information requested they could have easily perpetrated identity fraud with the information. They said they are looking for college students through this mailing. Fortunately I am a middle aged college student and know better. At the very least they lied in their letter to me about the application, and at the worst, they may be an 'identity theft ring'. I don't know what can be done about these people, but I had to write to someone." (This story posted online on 01/20/04) |
