Id Theft Accounts - Oregon Consumers
From: http://www.bbbonline.org/idtheft/stories.asp
Account #1:
"On May 12th 2002 I contacted (a bank) in regards to a fraudulent credit card issued under my stolen social security number. There was a balance of (over $13,000). I spoke with several representatives about the matter and I was informed that the only correct information on the fraudulent account was my social security number. My name, date of birth and my address were incorrect, yet they still issued the credit card. I was told to file an identity theft report and to contact the 3 credit bureaus and report fraud activity. I also filed a police report and a report with the Federal Trade Commission. I called (the) bank again on June 4th to make sure that the account had been cleared. I was informed that the account was not considered a fraud case, because they said that the social security number was correct and they filed it as a typing mistake even though I was informed on May 12th that it was definitely a fraud account as the only correct information was my social security number and the activity on the account was considered suspicious activity (large payments were deposited into the fraud account then transferred out to other accounts). I would like (the) bank to remove the fraudulent account from my credit report and from their records. And I would like a document from (the) bank that states that I am no longer responsible for the amount on the fraudulent account, because the person on the account is not me. They should not issue credit cards to people without first making sure that the social security number matches their name." (This story posted online on 02/09/04)
