I'm sorry to hear about the situation you are facing. It sounds like a complex and potentially illegal situation.

Also on my phone it says auto pay has been set up with the debit card used to buy the phone. I didn't use a debit card though.

I suggest you IMMEDIATELY return to the store and see the owner/manager to set this right. There are several explanations for this that come to my mind and none of them are on the up and up.
I'm not sure on how to edit my question... but I meant to say it was exposed to a former employee not employer.
Company meant to send an email internally within the company but inadvertently sent the email to a former employee, who no longer works at the company. Thank you.

If you suffer loss, perhaps. If you do not suffer loss, no.
Presumably your former employer already knew your SSN because it had to pay you and withhold taxes. Seems like this is a no-harm, no-foul situation.
Good luck to you.
This girlfriend sent the fraudulent DPOA document to my employer and interfered with my employment very badly. The day I learned I had lost my job due to my employer needed more information and repeatedly called the girlfriend who grunted in response and hung up. She has done a lot aof damage and... View More

If your girlfriend forged your signature and created fraudulent documents that caused you injury, then crimes have been committed (identity theft, forgery). The whole issue will be proof. It will be important to gather any documents or evidence that you have to show what took place. There are a... View More
I never approved for her to use my information to get this loan and now I’m getting calls from debt collectors saying I owe $19,000 because she has not been paying the loan and it’s all under my information. This is not my loan and I never approved any of this.

when you say your EX, does that mean you were divorced?
if so what she did, arguably broke the law.
did you report it to law enforcement?
you may want to contact a local lawyer to write a letter and try to explain this to the people coming after you. I think a police report... View More
I purchased a $500 prepaid Visa gift card from a grocery store in CA in 2022. An unknown person registered it in his name after I used $387 of the $500. Customer Service for the Bank who issued the Visa gift card refuses to fraud out this Visa card because the thief registered it in his name.... View More

My experience with prepaid cards is that you have to register the card before it becomes active. Based on the information in your question, it seems to me that you did not purchase the card.

date was said to be 9/1 at around 7 pm, but I didn't steal anything from said store. also have no idea HOW cop or store got my name or identity. it is a store I've been to, but def did not steal and can't connect dots. need to know what to say to cop when he calls.
answered on Oct 5, 2022
Feels more like crimlaw than consumer law. AND while I do not handle crimlaw matters, I think it is VERY rare for a 'cop' to write a letter. I think if this is a misrep or a scam, you may have a nice counter (type) claim? Good luck with it...
It's been almost 2 years and my name, signature etc is still used in my previous job, is that legal?
answered on Jul 18, 2022
First, I would ask your employer in writing to remove your name from their shipping documents.
Second, you may be able to bring a claim for unauthorized use of your name for a commercial purposes under Civil Code 3344, which provides for $750 in statutory damages, actual damages, profits... View More

This is how the criminal "justice" system works. You get what you "pay" for.
FYI, Conflict Counsel in Riverside County only get paid a flat fee of $500 (unless the case goes to trial, then it's a measly $1,500). No reasonably competent criminal defense attorney... View More

an attorney would need more facts to assist you. contact a consumer protection attorney right away and have documents ready for the attorney to review.
With consent and necessary information provided, can someone legally attend/complete an online traffic school course for the consenting individual?
answered on Feb 24, 2022
Yes, falsely representing yourself as another individual to attend traffic school for them is a CRIME. Do not do it or have it done for you. The penalty will be much worse than the ticket, you could go to jail.
We want the bank to drop the credit card charges, but they insist there was no fraud. I need help building a case to prove that the funds were stolen/coerced (about $8,000). Should I seek legal counsel from a consumer protection lawyer or is this identity theft? Who could help me with this case?... View More
answered on Feb 11, 2022
This is both a consumer issue and identity theft. You definitely want to consult with a consumer protection attorney. You also want to make sure you file an identity theft report with the FTC (https://www.ftc.gov/faq/consumer-protection/report-identity-theft). You also want to send written, by... View More
A person I was with in Las Vegas put something in my drink and “borrowed” a large sum of money. He’s since admitted he owes it to me but is not paying.
answered on Nov 19, 2021
you probably need a civil litigator.
however, the amount is to small for most lawyers to take this on a contingency.
it sounds like an hourly case and would not be worthwhile for you to do this.
if you can't collect, sue for $10k in small claims and waive the... View More

I was contacted by a law firm representing US Bank. For a credit card that was open in 2005 and payments made on it until 2008. A balance of 5000 was never paid. I have no recollection of this.

it is likely past the statute of limitations but an attorney would need to review what you are receiving and get more facts to further advise you.

not likely unless you have specific proof showing your old employer gave your information to the person that stole your identity (knowing that the person will steal your identity). it's a hard burden to prove.

much more info is needed.
if the amount is under $10,000, I would suggest going to small claims court where you can get a date within months rather than many years.

You present very limited facts here to really know what is going on. But to the extent you were previously found not guilty on a criminal charge after a trial, you cannot again be prosecuted by the same court for the same charge; in other words, you cannot be subjected to "double... View More
