Back in 2002, some [long string of profanities deleted] individual obtained two cell phones in my name, using an old address of mine as a billing address. In three months, they ran up a $700 bill. I only found out about this last week, when I checked my credit report to find out why I can't get a car loan.
Has anyone here been through something like this before? Any tips or advice? I've already filed a dispute with the credit bureaus, filed a police report, and tomorrow afternoon I'm going to call the cell phone company's fraud department. Is there anything else I can do? I need to get this problem resolved ASAP, and with as little headache as possible.
(Paying the $700 is not an option I'm willing to consider.)
