A woman w/ the same name as me, living in FL used my ss# to rack up $thousands in debt. She opened several accounts and loans. She worked for a Credit reporting company and claimed that is where she got the info. She is in jail charged w/ 5 felony charges so far. Can I sue the Company where she worked for negligence?

Re: Idenitity Theft

YES! (Assuming other things check out, like

whether there is jurisdiction in Virginia, and

whether you can prove the facts as you describe

them, etc., etc.)

Where are you in Virginia? You should see a

lawyer.
