A:
I'm sorry to hear about the difficulties you're facing. To start, visit your local bank branch and explain the situation to them. They can help access your accounts using your bank ID chips and verify your identity securely.
Next, contact government offices such as the Department of Motor Vehicles or the Social Security Administration. They can assist in updating your records and ensuring your identity is correctly registered under your original name.
Additionally, consider reaching out to a trusted legal advisor or a local legal aid service. They can help you navigate the process of recovering your information and addressing any unauthorized name changes. Taking these steps can help you regain control and secure your personal and financial information.
