Hi,

 

A couple that moved into my previous address after I moved out has used my mums name to gain credit - mostly catalogues but I know they tried for credit cards to - not sure if they were successful.

 

I reported this to the police and they where not interested. I have letters, names, addresses, even some of the goods but they still said I could not report it as I was not the loser. I have written to the inspector at the police station asking for him to put this in writing (that I cannot report a crime).

 

In the meantime, since my mum is old and I don't want to worry her, and since she lives abroad now anyway, is there a letter I can get from her to authorise me to deal with all of this on her behalf. i.e. writing to credit reference agencies and so on?

 

Thanks,

seabro.

Get some quick legal advice as your mum should be able give you some sort of power of attourney to sort this matter out on her behalf.

 

I had my identity stolen quite recently and am now registered with CIFAS as suggested by mochamoo. This is a really good thing to do as it restricts another persons ability to take credit out in your mum's name. You can even agree a password to be used to obtain credit, etc.
