I was reading a post on how to locate a lost friend and ended up playing with the background search.. Along with many other oddities this thing found it said I had a warrant in Ferndale Michigan..
I am a dual citizen, I hold an American citizenship as well as Canadian, I have lived in many states including Michigan. I have never had so much as a speeding ticket!!
I called the Ferdale (8 mile road in Detroit) Police department and learned this.. Someone using my name and birthdate received a fine for something small, normally just a fine, but apparently there was a court date attached to this... When I (whoever I was) never showed up it became a "failure to appear" and resulted in a warrant!
It would really suck to cross the border with my family only to be yanked and held, then sent to Ferndale to serve out the warrant.. The wonderful and helpful Police department said all I could do is turn myself in and let a judge figure it out..
I am freaking out here.. :help:
