Victim of Identity Theft

[jale9579]

Bros,

can someone out there help?
My roomate (v.good friend) has just learnt he has been a victim of Identity theft!! Runing credit checks, applying credit cards, running up bills etc... Apparently the cretin who did this left a cell phone for contact information that is in our local area.. If anyone knows of a "service" we could use to trace this number and somehow pay them a visit, your input would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks guys.

I think the appropriate service is called the Police Department.

All came to senses and calmed down and have contacted those services.. Amazing these people do this and get away with it!

a little confused as to why you find this shit funny rod?

Jale9579, I wasn't laughing at your poor friends situation. I do not find identity theft funny. I was laughing at Grizzlies response. He said call the police. Of course, everyone knows that you should call the police when you are a victim of theft. I was laughing at Grizzlies response, not at the fact that your friend is a victim of identity theft.

And I do hope that your friend can sucessfuly resolve this problem.

I had to point out the obvious, Rod.

Let's see, find the guy, beat him up, possibly get collared for aggravated assault and STILL be out a shitload of cash...

OR...

Call the police, get the guy arrested and restore your credit rating.

Tough call.
