Keep an eye on your mailbox!

Subject: Stolen mail

When this month’s credit card bill didn’t show up in my mailbox on its usually day, I was worried.  It never did show up until I had the card company send me another.  I believe it was stolen, and subsequently, someone has tried to open an Experian Credit Score account using my card number.  Experian was able to tell me that my credit card number was used by a Jennifer G.  Interesting that their rules protect the name of someone who was obviously using a stolen credit card number.

So, Ms. Jennifer G….if you read the Chatlist, know that that card has been cancelled, your account with Experian, as well.  You may have even tried to buy some shoes, but that charge never went through.  Other folks with mailboxes along rural 902, keep an eye on your mail.  Obviously, someone local is taking advantage of set-back homes, and seeing what treasures they can grab when no one is watching.
