Re: Theft by deception

That's some friend. Yeah, I would go to the police and sign a complaint. You may also want to cancel your credit cards, get new ones, and contact your credit card company and notify them of what happened. Sometimes, the police won't help you in these situations. If this happens, feel free to call me as we provide identity theft assistance. My initial consultations are always free.

Good luck!
