Bank Action
Hello,
My information has been compromised as confirmed by multiple attempted bank accounts being opened, an unemployment claim and who knows what else. Luckily nothing has had an immediate impact (was able to report the unemployment), most of the bank accounts are just emails saying they cannot open an account. My credit has been frozen for years at this point. Today I got emails that I had an account opened at SoFi, I was able to call and report it but I’m not sure how good they are (other banks closed them right away, they put a ticket in and said they’d investigate). My question is should I report the banks anywhere for opening these accounts despite frozen credit. I am 100% sure and have confirmed all bureaus are frozen, and having worked in banking in the past I know we always had to pull credit to open an account per the patriot act. Of course it’s not their fault if they got legitimately duped, but I’m struggling to see how they actually opened the account if all measures were followed.
To be clear I’m not looking for legal action or anything, just kind of ridiculous to me
