Well, please take a look at the Trans Union web site, the link I sent you has a very good section on their anti-fraud program. I did not realize that these safeguards were available.

So, I am kicking back with Speyburn and soda, reading SI, trying to decide if Luc will ever be right. How 'bout yourself?

Ice, why don't you send an email to experian anyway (TRW). They are there on the weekend I'll bet. The webpage is www.experian.com, there is a link that says "contact us". In the header of your message put FRAUD ALERT. Include you name and ss#, that should do it.

Also there is a way that these credit companies have of communicating with each other so it may be that once experian gets it everyone else will too.

I've always been afraid of something like this happening. A friend did have a phone bill of $2200 once, which was a professional operation that called every thrid world country (I mean, ivory coast, zimbabwe, iran everywhere) for exacltly 59 minutes each call. No country twice, each the same amount of time, all third world countries. What a sophisticated operation that was... I have no idea how they got cash out of that, of course she didn't have to pay but there are all kinds of crazy scams going around.
