Merry frakking Christmas. I had my wallet lifted sometime this afternoon. I'm hoping I'm stupid and left it at a restaurant, but meh. Time to go cancel everything I own.
Go to Social Security too, and get a new card just in case. Also think about putting a block on your credit report. That way they have to call you if anyone tries to do anything with your social. Identity theft can be more than just using your credit. And they can make things a lot worse than just having bad credit.
(\And, I don't know what your score is, but some people think they have awful credit but it's still good enough to get other things).
I'm definitely doing that Monday. I do believe there is already a flag on my credit report since I've had a problem with identity theft in the past. I should call and check Monday, though.
Yea, my credit is pretty much bottom of the barrel. I know my score and it isn't pretty.
