  If you think you have been a victim of identity theft or fraud, take immediate action and keep records of your correspondence and telephone and other conversations – to whom you reported the incident, the date, time of day and account of what you reported, what the listener advised and the context of the conversation. While the steps you should take will vary with your individual circumstances, four basic actions are appropriate in almost every case:

1. Contact the fraud departments of any one or all three major credit bureaus to place a fraud alert on your account or credit line.  It is a relatively quick process that can be done by telephone via the credit bureaus’ automated systems.  You will need to key in your Social Security number and other identifying information.  You will be asked to give your telephone number and it is recommended that you give your cell-phone number if you have one so that the credit bureaus can reach you easily.
   1. Equifax (www.equifax.com): 1-888-766-0008 - PO box 740241, Atlanta, GA 30374-0241
   2. Experian (www.experian.com) 1-888-397-3742 - PO Box 9532, Allen, Texas 75013
   3. Trans Union (www.transunion.com) 1-800-680-7289 - PO Box 6790, Fullerton, CA 92834

2. A fraud alert tells companies that they should call or contact you to verify your identity whenever they check your credit report with the intention of opening an account in your name or making any changes to an existing account.

   A fraud alert is free and the bureau should send you a confirmation letter within a week with instructions about how to order a free credit report.

   A fraud alert is good for ninety (90) days.  It is recommended that you renew the alert a couple of weeks before it is due to expire, every three months for at least a year since identity thieves may take their time before using your information.  Putting a fraud alert on your credit reports may delay the grant of instant credit but it should not lower your credit score or prevent you from getting a loan.

3. Contact the creditors for any accounts that have been tampered with or opened fraudulently.
4. File a report with your local police department, or the police in the community where the identity theft took place, and get a copy of the police report for your records.
5. File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).  Complaints can be filed by telephone, 1-877-IDTHEFT, (1-877-438-4338), or through the FTC’s identity theft Web site at www.consumer.gov/idtheft.
6. Change your bank account numbers.  If you use direct deposit and the data stolen had to do with compensation issue, you might want to change your bank account numbers.  When changing your account(s), make sure you use a password and PIN that is not your mother’s maiden name, your birth date, your Social Security number or any part of it, or any other easily guessed code.  Once your account is changed, you should receive a new ATM or debit card as well as new checks.  Make sure to shred your old checks as soon as possible.  Be sure to alert any company whose bills you pay directly from your bank account about the change in your account numbers.
