Consumers who are victimized by fraud or identity theft may lose out on job opportunities, or be denied loans for education, housing, or cars because of negative information on their credit reports. They may even be arrested for crimes they did not commit.

What To Do if You’re a Victim of Fraud or Identity Theft

Put a fraud alert on your credit reports.

Contact one of the three credit reporting agencies (Experian, Equifax, TransUnion) to place a free 90-day fraud alert on your credit report. The alert tells creditors to follow certain procedures before they open new accounts in your name or make changes to your existing accounts. You only need to contact one of the agencies to make this effective across all three agencies.

Review your credit report.

Placing a fraud alert entitles you to free copies of your credit reports. Review these reports carefully, looking for inquiries from companies you haven’t contacted, accounts you didn’t open or debts on your accounts that you can’t explain.

Contact any institutions that have been affected.

Determine what important documents and articles have been stolen. If you had one or multiple retail credit cards stolen, be sure to contact each retail company to have the cards blocked. In the case of car registration, bill stubs, etc. that have been stolen, be sure to contact the institutions and notify them that your information has been stolen.

Close any accounts that have been tampered with or established fraudulently.

Ask for verification that the disputed account has been closed and the fraudulent debts discharged. Keep copies of documents and records of your conversations about the theft.

File a police report.

Contact your local law enforcement officials and file a report with them. If you suspect that your identity has been stolen, you should also contact the Federal Trade Commission to file an Identity Theft Affidavit and create an Identity Theft Report.

This can also be done by phone (toll-free): 1-877-ID THEFT (877-438-4338); TDD (toll-free): 1-866-653-4261, or by mail
