I went back and re-read your first post, you said the thief had your social security number and your mother's maiden name. Oddly enough, I have given out my own mother's maiden name only a few times, the only ones I recall on the Internet, I just gave it yesterday to the Virginia Lawyer's Weekly site so that I could access their archives. I have a manila folder full of log-on stuff, I print the page so I don't have to remember, everything from New York Times, Wall Street Journal, so on and so forth. I have been using the internet since about 1993, used to have a Prodigy account and a Compuserve account. Even a WELL account, maybe before that. I think from now on, I won't give my mother's real maiden name.
So that is one angle you haven't mentioned.
Sorry, it really does sound like a mess. I think you can get a new social security number, if you have to. |
