And as if that weren't enough, I have 3 other loans out right now apparently in my name and social security number. Again keep in mind I am 19 years old and have never had any sort of loan whatsoever, and I've never had a credit card either. So my credit report should definitely be completely blank.

Thank god I have a aunt who is a lawyer, she told me this sounds like a pretty big law suit waiting to happen. She told me there was a lot of mortgage scams going on around 5-6 years ago.

I've spent all day calling the three credit bureaus, Wachovia, and HSBC. This day has sucked.


Lawyer? Lol... She made it sound so easy.

Get ready to suffer man... Sounds like identity theft to me...

If I was you I would "freeze" your credit to prevent anything else until you clear that **** up.. big pain in the ass..
