[QUOTE="Jasz, post: 275603, member: 61772"] If you've been the victim of credit fraud, it can be difficult to understand how your financial history has been affected. You might think that all of your accounts are safe and sound, but in reality, someone stole your identity and used it to open new accounts and take out new loans. If you are in this situation, there are steps you can take to restore your credit after a family member steals your personal information. Here's what you need to do: You should reach out to the credit bureaus in time. The first thing you should do is contact the three major credit reporting agencies: Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. These companies maintain files on consumers who have been identified as victims of identity theft. They will automatically place a fraud alert on your file if they determine that someone has stolen your identity and used it for fraudulent purposes. The fraud alert will remain in place until you notify them otherwise or until six months have passed since the incident occurred. Report the incident to law enforcement officials Once you've reported the incident to one or more of these agencies, report it to local law enforcement authorities as well! You don't have to wait for a police officer or investigator from any agency — just take responsibility for protecting yourself against future incidents by reporting. [/QUOTE]
