On XX/XX/2019 I received an alert from XXXX   about my credit. I have had a freeze on all my credit. I logged in to find a new PayPal account ( I only have 2 credit cards and I pay them in full every month ). I immediately opened a dispute with XXXX  and I called the bank associated with the new account ( Synchrony Bank ). They claimed they had just purchased a bunch of PayPal accounts from another bank and there were some mistakes. They asked me for my billing address, it did not match the billing address for the account. They also asked me for my email address and it did not match what was on the account they then transferred me to the fraud dept. They opened a fraud case but said it would take 60 days. yesterday I received a letter saying they denied the fraud case for the following reasons : Account opened for more than 1 year with verifiable payment history ( Not true I have never sent payment as I never knew this account was even open ) Customer benefited from use of card ( not true I never received a card ) Synchrony Bank then opened a new line of credit for the identity thief using my social security number. Which they claim is within their rights.
