Online shopper created an account under my email, cell phone then used my billing address but not my credit card?
Hi, I last week I received shipping text updates about an order placed through the website Revolve. I didn’t place an order but noticed the person and I have the same first name(uniquely spelled but common name), so I didn’t think anything of it and assumed the company just made an error. I responded to the shipping company Veho that day stating they had the wrong info but they didn’t respond. I completely forgot about it.
This morning my bank alerted me that my debit card was flagged for fraud on a $0 charge that I didn’t place and they froze my account. I planned to call them tomorrow morning as today’s Sunday, assuming it was just an error cause it didn’t make sense.
Now, I was just looking through my email inbox and I noticed a bunch of emails from Revolve to review an order. There was also a welcome email for an account created last week. I already have an account so it didn’t make sense. I realized that my old email address’ emails are forwarded to my current email account. So a new Revolve account was created under my old email last week then placed an order.
I was able to log into “my” account using a recovery password. I can see the order and everything. The person used my old email address and current cell phone with my correct name and billing address but with a card that isn’t mine. Then they shipped it using their name and address.
Should I be worried? Should I report this to the FTC for identity theft?
Thanks!
