- Hummelstown, PA, USA • Nov 11, 2024

This person is using my maiden name which I haven't used in 18 years. They are calling family members and leaving messages asking for personal information about me. They are also asking for "signatures" for documents that are being prepared. My credit report noted that my SSN and email address were recently compromised, but I'm not sure if the calls are related.

I do not know how they obtained my debit card information, it was never lost or stolen. I simply noticed there was a charge on my account I did not make for $110 from a company I never heard of before. I looked it up and it is registered to someone's house down the road from me and very clearly a scam. Someone they are acquiring banking information. I have had to request a new card and change my account information. I am fearful of what information they have of mine if they accessed my bank account.

The scammer pretended to be a local tattoo shop, when I clicked on the link, my personal Instagram page got hacked. The person under the handle Tyler._.Loganfx used my face as a "testimonial" for cryptocurrency success and has sent request to all the people I was originally following. I no longer have access to my social media page since it got hacked and the person changed the password. They are pretending to be me.

The website allpeople.com is a data farming site that acquires people's personal data and then makes it impossible for them to remove themselves from it. While there appears to be an opt-out option on the site, it does not and has not worked. There is also no contact information such as email, address, or phone number. The same error occurs when trying to contact them using their "form." Their terms of use page seems to indicate that they are possibly located in NJ. I've tried using several services, such as Incogni, to remove my data but they've had no luck either. This is clearly a violation of user's rights to data privacy. It is literally impossible to remove my data from this site.

Received an email from Experian (on Sept 10, 2024) that my personal data was found on the dark web involving my social security number and my phone number (405-207-8085).

- Chester Springs, PA, USA • Sep 18, 2024

The website is fraudulent, not verified and has many complaints. Other than the loss of money my GREATEST concern is identity theft. Please help.

I ordered a birth certificate, gave license number and social security number and paid in full. Now there is no record of order other than a screenshot I was lucky to take at end of transaction.

The business described here, Liberty Water Damage Restoration, is using a private residential address that is not theirs.

The wonder of the address listed on their website does not have any relationship with the company or know anyone from it.

They are using the address without the resident knowledge.

My daughter thought she was filling out a property rental application for 412 S. 8th St. Hartsville, SC 29550. She gave them her social security number, date of birth, address, and phone number. She realized after they made an ID.me account for her and she got an email from ID.me to verify the account that it was a scam. No one should ever create an ID.me account for you. Then they were prompting her to upload her ID and picture to verify the account for them. They take pictures from Zillow for properties that sometimes aren't even for rent and lower the price to a great monthly rate including utilities to bait you. Two other properties came up on another website housesforrent.ws when I Googled the phone number used :4296 Williams Ave, Cincinnati, Oh 45236 and 506 Marquette Dr, Louisville, Ky 40222. Do not give your information to these people!

Yesterday, June 28, I deleted my real facebook account containing my first, middle, and last name. I received a confirmation email letting me know that this would go into full effect in 30 days. However, someone has now hacked into that account. Today, I tried to go back into Facebook, and it asked me for a "what's app code" with a timer and I do not have What's app. Also, when I tried the second attempt to retrieve my account, it did not go to my real phone number. Therefore, both methods to try to rectify the issue on Facebook are no longer working since this account has been compromised. Therefore, someone hacked into this account now and is pretending to be me and phishing for personal information. To make matters worse, on June 27th someone has created a second fake Facebook page using my work email. There is an email associated account as a facebook user out there. On June 27th, they had also created a facebook page with my first and last name from Vietnam with my birthday so someone is trying to assume my identity. The facebook email was sent to my work email and I accidentally clicked on it and now, I am dealing with the consequences of compromised personal identity. They have my name and my birthday. I upgraded my anti virus information and found out that my birthday is now on the dark web. Even though I reported this issue using the "report an imposter" form in Facebook, I cannot complete any other online forms such as "my account was compromised" because I cannot enter the original page. They have taken it over and I cannot verify my true identity so my account has been hacked. I also sent a note to facebook phish email. Essentially, I am concerned that my personal information has now been taken and they are trying to phish for more information. Sadly, there are three different facebook accounts impersonating me.

They only have access to my number that I know of, initial contact was through instagram. I was asked to give them a code so they could gain access back into their accounts. I believed it was a scam So asked for a real time photo and they gave it somehow. I gave them the code for “whatsapp”so don’t know if they are attempting to create an account under me. I don’t have an account so wasn’t worried at first.

I spent a lot of time making phone calls to merchants having to explain and verify myself numerous of times to each and every person I spoke to. I had to gather up all my bank statements and utility bills. I had to sign into every email and account I have and change my info 1 by 1. I had to close out accounts and start new ones. I had to sit on the phone for hours with the establishments that I interact with going thru my statements to verify the unauthorized purchases. I had to dispute a lot of inquiries on all 3 credit bureaus and place a freeze and fraud alerts on them. I spent the little funds I did have just to get security set in my home along with purchasing subscriptions to protect and monitor my scores a credit and for fraudulent activity. I’ve been making calls and searching online for all the help I can get to fix this issue. I had to make reports to the police and to the mailing companies and even put holds on my mail and packages. I haven’t been sleeping properly due to this issue gathering all the info an help I can before everything closes. I owe banks for things I didn’t even do and lost a lot of funds from my bank accounts and credit cards being tampered with. And I’m still looking for all the resources I can get to speed this process up. I started this morning December 28th 2023 at approximately 7am And haven’t stopped since then. But this problem has been going on for a couple years before prior to now. And has gotten worse.
