If you know her current whereabouts, send a letter to anyone trying to reach her and tell them. You are not being held liable for her debts regardless of what she has told her creditors so she is not committing fraud against you. However, if you let those creditors know her whereabouts and explain that you and your husband are in no way connected to her, you have done your part. They will flag the account and probably cancel it. The biggest danger here is that she might be using your husbands information (work, salary etc) as a means to get credit that she alone could not qualify for. She may even have gone so far as to include his name on credit cards for example. Although under the circumstances I don't think you could be held liable, it could create a credit problem for you guys. My best advice is to see an attorney. He can advise you of what legal steps can be taken.

No. In fact, in a lot of states, a woman has to pay to have her married name removed after a divorce.

The beauty of names are that as long as its use is not to hide criminal intent, you can call yourself anything you like. Ask Slash, Sting or Madonna.

Nope, you won that name fair and square so the only one who can change it is you by going back to your maiden name.

You can legally change your name to whatever you what, pretty sure there is nothing the husband can do.

Anyone can sue for anything. But no, he wouldn't be able to win.
