Yes. Most credit card companies require that you file a police report in order to initiate their fraud protection services.
Besides, its always a good thing to report this behavior to the police.
Good luck.

You can put a fraud alert immediately BUT it only stays on your credit report for three months. FIle a police report, make notarized copies and send them to the credit reporting agencies. This form of "credit alert" will stay of for 7 years and will indicate " fraud victim", if and when your credit report is every pulled during that time.

Yes. And it's good that you already canceled the card.
