My info stolen, beyond furious at Escrow company. What's my next priority, please?
What happened: Sold my house in another state. After closing, Escrow company stuffed my.closing and tax papers in a flimsy letter envelope, 2 little pieces of tape on the flap, stuck a first class stamp on it, and mailed it to my PO box on the other side of the country. When I got it, their 2 pieces of tape on the envelope flap were nicely sliced off, papers put back in envelope. Closing statement, docusigned items containing name, SSN, copy check to pay state tax, and the completed tax withholding forms.
Done: 4 credit bureaus frozen/fraud alerts, Chexsystems freeze, IRS pin, filed complaint with USPS.
Not done: LexisNexis, NCTUE, Everify. How important are these?
Question: IdentityTheft.gov – if nobody has actually tried to use SSN yet, there is no report to file?
Started: complaint against Escrow. I called them and they said “Sorry” (literally, one word). I followed with Email asking for list of papers that were in that envelope and who handled them; nothing. I have on my list to file complaint against them, when I get the rest of this done. This will gain nothing for me, but I am that mad. Writing letters is not my talent.
What else? Investment companies?
