The reason I ask is, I temporarily lost my wallet in the vicinity of my own home. An anonymous neighbor returned it while I wasn't home … the small amount of cash that was in it was gone, but the cards (including my drivers license and social security card) were still in there. It's possible that whoever had it for the night wrote down my numbers somewhere … are there any government or credit agencies (aside from my bank who I already notified & cancelled my ATM card) that I should contact?

A collection agency has provided me with an ID Theft Affidavit which has an option that asks if I'm willing to assist in the prosecution of the person committed the fraud. I have no idea who it could have been but it took place in MD and I live in CA. If there is a prosecution, I don't want to be hassled with it. I called the collection agency and they say they will not clear the debt if I do not assist. Can they do that? I don't know the laws related to this stuff. I've been battling this collection agency for the better part of 2 years and it seems they are able to dictate the process without having to be constrained by regulations or good judgement. Can someone please help!?

Can my identity be stolen by just my full name, address, phone number revealed?
Or do they need more like SSN, birthdate or ?
I just want to prevent this from happening, I try to be careful.
I shred documents.
But if my full name, address and phone number is revealed, can my identity be at risk? Just want to make sure

I've recently gotten 2 credit card bills in my name for cards I never applied for nor do I have. I'm on disability and have filed for bankruptcy a few years previous so I couldn't get a card if I wanted one. I'm at a loss for what to do since I can't pay for charges that I didn't make.
