This is not related but I had a call last night from Wells Fargo credit card fraud telling me someone was using our card. Wells canceled the card and reversed the charges.
I wonder where else we have been comprised...
With so much info online, it is becoming difficult to protect your identity.
Last year my credit card bill came including a nice trip someone took from Europe to Ireland and back c/o my credit card. I had the charges removed and the card reissued with a new number but you never know what's going on out there. I have removed my SSN from ALL documents (except military papers -- can't do that) and get a free credit service report every year. But I still get notices every several months from some creditor letting me know of the latest scam/alert.
