Am I Really Who I Say I Am?  Check This Out.  Very Important

Well Gang. Some of you know me and many of the new members dont have a clue who I am. I just want to give everyone a little break down of where I have been. But really is it me or is it someone else.

Two words: IDENTITY THEFT

Last couple months I have been dealing with pure 100% no holds barred identity theft.

Im not going to get into all the details because really I would be writing for days.

However it really is a devastating crime. Everything from loans, credit cards to even a library card on my name made by someone else.

This person eventually got in and cleaned out all my bank accounts, maxed out 1000s and 1000s in credit cards. 1000s in loans online and of course the wolves started knocking on my door.

Ready to put this into action?

Innocent until proven guilty is not the case in identity theft. 100% guilty until proven innocent.

All in all things are going a bit better now that the person was stopped. Not caught but stopped for the simple reality that I am also stopped.

For the money taken from my bank account yep there is insurance. The money used on my credit cards of course I dont have to pay back. However I was left with no credit cards and believe me getting one know sucks because every transaction I have to prove its me.

My passport was frozen and cancelled and now that is my next venture. The sharks for the online loans are still trying to say the loans are my responsibility even though I have a letter from the crown acknoledging who I am and what happend.

Every loan I apply for from this day forward I have to prove who i am because my name is flagged in the system.

So between dealing with this and being scared to even be online that is where I have been.

I feel lijke a prisoner in my own life.

I may get the energy one day to write a very long post with more details.

So thanks for listening. I hope everyone here is doing great and i think Im close to coming back.
