    I cant open up a bank account
    If someone could just give me some suggestions it would help. I recently tried to open a bank account. Then I got the shocking news that I wasn't able to because I have been writtng bad checks. Bad checks I said, I never had a bank account in my life, how could that be possible. Come to find out I can't open an account because someone used to my social and opened an account with it, and I guess wrot bad checks. How... I don't know. Well I was given this fruad paplet with some numbers that I could call and I could get some help. Well I did, and they said they could put a faud alert out my social and said they would mail me a letter so that I could give it to the bank and I could open an account. Well nothing yet, I called again an the same thing over. I even went to the fruad web page to post a fraud on my social. Im getting frustrated, and I don't know what todo. I plan on opening a montessori home preschool soon, and I can't exaclty do that until I get my stuff cleared. HELP!! :confused:

    Have you filed a police report on the ID theft yet. Normally with a copy of the police report you can open a bank account.

    And this is very very serious since the police can come after you for the bad checks until you prove yourself not guility
