Victims of Credit Card Fraud or Identity Theft

1. Report the crime to the police immediately. Get a copy of the police report or case number. Credit card companies, the bank, or insurance companies may ask for the reference to verify the crime.
2. Immediately contact the credit card issuers. Get replacement cards with new account numbers and ask that the old account be processed as “account closed at consumer’s request” for credit record purposes. Follow up with a letter to the credit card  company that summarizes the request in writing.
3. Call the fraud units of the three credit reporting bureaus to report the theft. Ask that the accounts be flagged. Also, add a victim’s statement to the report requesting contact to verify future credit applications
