I am in the process of filing unemployment claim and recieved some paper work telling me that I had been working for a certain company although I have never heard of them before. Apparently someone has been using my social security number. How do I stop this person from using my info?

I’m envolved in the Lockwood vs. Certigy Inc. class lawsuit and I’m entitled to identity theft reinbursement if the court decides to grant the settlement between the plantiffs (many people!!!) and defendent. What does this mean? My check and credit card info was sold to a third party. I know that.
I hope I can choose my own identity…it would have to be equal or lesser value than mine to count probably. So…that would be tough because i’m pretty up there…just kidding…that was vain.

Somebody has created a very offensive myspace page under my name. It is a very very offensive page, and i would like it to be deleted. i emailed myspace, and they havent responded yet. It happened two days ago. I also would like him to gedt into some form of trouble for this, but my boss at work, where it started said he cant do anything, and the policew said to talk to my boss. Since he is using my name without my permission, cant i file some sort of identity theft lawsuit against him?
it’s not my boss that made the page, it is a coworker. This coworker has been being very offensive and cruel towards me for a long time now, and he just finally crossed the line. My boss cant do anything about it, as it occured outside of the workplace.

Can a simple address or name or IP address of PC allows you to steal their identity? Or they need something like a credit card number and social security #?

I was on a site for dog adoptions, where I emailed this woman about an adoption, and received a reply that was a straight online scam. I never replied to her, but am worried that writing the email to her in the first place has given her access to some of my private information (IP, computer access codes, etc). I recall reading somewhere that simply opening a fraudulent email, or replying to the email, without actually giving up any information, makes you a candidate for identity theft because thieves have gotten around to encrypting emails itself. Does anyone know if this is true?? Thanks.

Can I make complaints if they commited identity theft on me or fraud if the account they used is already fully paid closed and resolved?
they the one who used my name or the thieves to open an account but everything is paid and the account is closed

LAPD wants, my full name, address, all my previous address, all my previous work, my social security number, my mother’s maiden name, bank name bank account numbers, all my credit card name and numbers etcetera. They have more information about me than what I can remember. Is it safe regarding identity theft? I am afraid that one bad LAPD employee might use my info to do identity theft. I have excellent FICO score. How safe is it?
