Fraud
Help! I'm a victim of identity theft. The thief only opened one card. But this card has been the bane of my existence since December. I received the fraudulent credit cards on December 7th. I immediately contacted the company. I was advised that they were going to send out a affidavit for me to complete, once that was done everything would be taken care of. I also filed a police report with my local police department. I never received the affidavit, but they were kind enough to send me a bill for $3500. I sent the company and all three credit bureaus a letter and a copy of the police report. The credit bureaus removed the account from my credit history. I though I was in the clear. But, I'm now getting harassing phone calls and collection letters regarding the bill. The collection agency keeps telling me that I have to clear the bill with the card company otherwise they're going to keep pursuing action against me. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can make this thing stop!
