Re: Credit card Debt

You need to set up a consult with a local attorney who can advise you. Your obligation to pay debts doesn't disappear if someone steals your identity; your remedy is against the person who stole from you, not against your creditor.

If you cannot pay this debt, consider talking with bankruptcy counsel.

Hope this helps. Elizabeth Powell
