What would you do if you suspect a family member?

I lost my house because of my step son promising me to take care of all the bills, they ruined my credit, I gave my half to my ex for free just to get out of there. Now last week I get a letter, being sued in civil court for almost $4000.00 plus court cost I'm sure. In 2001 my daughter put a protection order of abuse on her step brother, in 2001 some one had to have stold my social security number and opened up a master card under my name, no wonder my credit is so dam bad. My hunch is he snuck in the house or had my so called daughter in law do it, why the suspion, cause they stole my ex husbands income tax check a few years ago, that money was to buy me a car, so if they stole that, why wouldn't they ruin my credit.

He hated me when my daughter put the protection of abuse on him, (HE BLAIMED ME) it wasn't me, it was his girlfriend cause she was jealous of my daughter, she doesn't want any one near him. They set the court hearing for May 2008, I'm trying to get this straightened out with the attorneys from Master Card.

Question is do I get the person responcible for this arrested, I want to, but I don't know if I will ever find out who did this? I have no proof, but perhaps a signature/signatures? What would you all do? I'm angry to begin with, with these people, I don't consider them family, true family wouldn't do half the things they did to me. That house hold is nothing but dysfunction, their son, 5 at the time would pull knives on people, he even took knives to school, and the school did nothing.

To me these people are physcho.................

See if you can get ahold of some of the past bills and see where things were charged. Then contact these stores and ask for video survelance. If they refuse get a court order so you can see who is using the card. Good luck.

Lynn, sorry to hear you are going through this. You are doing the right thing with Mastercard and if you can get any evidence of signatures and bills would help. What is your daughter doing to help you in this matter?

Now I'm really mixed up? The numbers I gave to the Master Card Attorneys do not match up the numbers I had on that card/cards what ever, its not making sence? I found a card I had, Safty Net, to protect all cards if stolen, I forgot about this, I called them they tell me I had 2 Master Cards, I don't believe so, but any way, the numbers they gave me, DO NOT MATCH UP???? Now I'm back to square one, some one stole my idenity, or I'm losing my mind?

hay, why you stop, you keep right on tring to get the answers. call again and tell them the numbers DO NOT MATCH, I have lost everything over some numbers on a card that wern't mine and you don't need that. you call all creditors and report stolen cards, checks and then you put this in WRITING. don't get all bent, Pray for the help you need! don't just depend on others attorneys, get your own.

Thank You for your input, appreciaite the help. Have been searching on my own, its a waiting game right about now, sooner or latter I will receive some answers? I'm not worried about hiring my own attorney Tinkerbell, I know the steps that I need to take, not trying to be sarcastic, I just wanted to see what else I could possibly do, because of stress and medications my mind wonders just a touch at times. I fight my own battles, screw attorneys, most of them are only green blood suckers, I said most, not all, there are good attorneys, but this is Civil Court, I'll be ok on my own, "I HOPE"? If I'm still alive that is. Problem is this credit bureau will not give me out the info to the Master Card Company, now thats where a attorney would help, going pro-se on certain cases are not that easy, and I'm not one for doing motions. Once again thank you.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
