The best thing is to confirm this. To do so call up the 3 major credit companies, TransUnion, Experian, and and Equifax and get your credit report. You can get these reports free once a year. They have websites you can also get more info on. If someone is using your SS# to get a loan, credit card, or anything like that, it will show up. Hopefully you are wrong but if you do find anything suspious, contact all 3 credit companies and they will help you show how to stop whoever is doing it. Also you will want to contact the local city dept that issues SS cards and let them know what is going on. You may be able to save yourself a lot of headache and frustration by doing these things immediately. That way your credit and name won't be ruined.

Contact the police, the social security administration, the FBI and all three credit card bureas. Get all three of credit reports and study them scrupulously for any inconsistencies. Vigorously pursue any wrong information and work to get any account that you did not authorize taken off your record. Let the credit bureaus know that you don't want anything more opened with your social security number unless you give your express permission.
