Tips on Organizing Your Case
- Accurate and complete
records will greatly improve your chances of resolving
your identity theft case.
- Follow up in writing with
all contacts you’ve made on the phone or in person.
Use certified mail, return receipt requested.
- Keep copies of all
correspondence or forms you send.
- Write down the name of
anyone you talk to, what he or she told you, and the date
the conversation occurred. Use Chart Your Course of
Action, below, to help you.
- Keep the originals of
supporting documentation, like police reports, and
letters to and from creditors; send copies only.
- Set up a filing system for
easy access to your paperwork.
- Keep old files even if you
believe your case is closed. One of the most difficult
and annoying aspects of identity theft is that errors can
reappear on your credit reports or your information can
be re-circulated. Should this happen, you’ll be glad
you kept your files.
