Legal Question in Consumer Law in Georgia

In December 2008 someone opened a credit card in my maiden name after I had been married for 4 months and used a California address. I have never lived in California. They spent over 4,000 dollars and I didn't even realize this had happened until I was denied a credit card which prompted me to pull my credit report. I contacted the credit card company about this and the account was closed immediately. Is this grounds to sue the credit card company for negligence, ruining my credit, etc.?
