I went to check my XXXX XXXX today on XXXX and saw a dramatic fall off. Upon investigation, I saw a collection company, Credence Resource Management, supposedly had a collection effort against me for {$1400.00} for a past due bill for XXXX XXXX for a location/home in XXXX This was obviously fraud as I have lived in XXXX  my whole life and don't even know anyone in XXXX. I contacted the collection company and they said someone used my social and opened an account in XX/XX/XXXX, which they then closed in XX/XX/XXXX ( unfortunately, I happened to put a credit lock on my acct in XX/XX/XXXX, after the fact. XXXX 's collection proceedings started XX/XX/XXXX ). The person at the collection agency said he will send me fraud paperwork to fill out and suggested filing a police report. My next step was to contact XXXX. I let them know the details of my conversation with XXXX. They put a fraud alert on my acct. Then I was instructed to file a report on XXXX and send XXXX a copy. In starting the process on XXXX, I was directed here to file a claim. I have no idea how someone got my SS # to get this service but I will be very vigilant in checking my score regularly and putting safeguards in place for the future.

I hope this message reaches you in excellent physical condition.
