Identity THEFT and i cant get past it HELP!
Long story short, two years ago i received a bill from Verizon stating that 4 cell phones have been opened under my name. No minutes or data were used but somehow managed to rack the bill up to $2000. They used my name, address, and SS#.
-I filled for identity theft with verizon & credit bureaus
-I filled a police report
-Sent verizon all necessary information
Spent endless hours on the phone with verizon with no help. my case has been closed with them sending the amount due to collections. Filed with several collections stating the chargers were fraudulent. Amount due was just sent to another collection agency. Ive given up the fight against verizon and the collection agency and not sure what to do.
Its been in collections for awhile now but i refuse to cough up what is now $2500. I need to set this straight before moving on to REI.
Any advice would be very appreciated.
