OJR Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 I just received a call from a booking agency in Las Vegas and someone is using my address and phone number to try and book rooms in Vegas. They had a credit card, but it is the wrong one. They also had an email address but it was wrong also. The police are on their way here so I can file a report. They did have the name of the individual who tried to do this and it certainly wasn't me!!! His first name was Hakeem! I will follow up when I know more! Be careful!!!

VermontHunter Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Re: Heads Up! The good thing is that someone was on the ball and didn't let the charge go through..Hopefully they can figure out who the individuale was and make an arrest...good luck,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaDeerHunter Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 Re: Heads Up! Yeah taht is weird. The other day the credit card company called and asked if we made a purchase in the United Kingdom, and my dad says, wheres that? LOL. But someone was using our credit card number and made a 15 dollar purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Re: Heads Up! That's scarey Orlan. There is so much identity theft going on these days, it's hard to protect yourself. I sure hope they get the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Schmeck Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Re: Heads Up! I hope they catch Hakeem and give him a one way ticket to Gitmo and force him to eat pork for the rest of his life. Thanks for the heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Re: Heads Up! Identity theft. It's only a matter of time before it happens to me I'd say. My wife's friend has had her identity stolen 2 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
