Identity Thief Busted.... Sort of

Yeah, so... About a year ago, my wife got an unauthorized draft on her account. Luckily (at least in this circumstance) she didn't have any money in there, so she just got hit with an nsf fee. We filed a police report, but of course they didn't do anything. They didn't even take our number or address so they could contact us. Well... this pissed me the hell off, so I started researching like crazy. Over the course of about two weeks I was able to find out the name and address of the f* bag who tried to steal my wife's money. Also got a satellite image (google earth) of his house and the demographic and socioeconomic breakdown of his neighborhood. The name of his EX-wife, including her maiden name, address, telephone number, when they were married and divorced, etc. And found out that he had (at the time of my research) registered 54 (bogus) companies. which cost a couple of dollars to do online in his state. Some of which were posing as State and National Banks, State and National Credit Bureaus, and even one called Social Security Administration. Now I am no expert, but I believe that crosses the line into federal crime when you are posing as state and federal entities. Could I get anyone to do anything about it? NOOOO, of course not. Call the locals, they say call the state. Call the state, they say its this persons jurisdiction and so on. Contact the local sheriffs office in his jurisdiction, and they "are definitely going to get back with me" and "can I fax the information?" Did I hear from them noooo. Anyone in colorado wanna take care of some business for me ?? :) just kidding.... sort of.
All I have to say is, identity thieves and check fraud is costing the government billions of dollars a year. They can easily locate and prosecute these people by spending a fraction of that money to put in place the manpower and resources to do so. As a result, how many billions of dollars would they save each year? anyways, that's my rant :)

i'd like to clear his record. I do still have the account # that the money was supposed to go to :) But, my luck, then I would get arrested for stealing from a thief. Go figure

This would make a nice news story. Maybe national coverage. Have you tried contacting newspapers and TV stations? Sometimes you can't get Mr. Fife to nip it till it becomes a public embarressment.
 
Well, whenever I finally get the money togethor and get all my equipment for my studio, maybe I will take a drive to colorado to his house and see if he wants to give an interview:) or maybe just follow him around and do a little hidden cam stuff. But right now I got bigger things to worry about. Getting my wife (who has a masters degree) to be able to legally work in this country for one. Why a guy on a terrorist watch list can become a u.s. citizen and work for the c.i.a, and my wife can't even get a work permit is beyond me. Anyways, yeah.
