Synchrony Financial Credit card department,
Identity theft / Fraud / Embezzlement Nevada
I have had my identity stolen and someone has tried multiple times to open credit with Synchrony bank using my ss #, address and other personal information. I have contacted the credit bureaus and FTC and filed police reports. I had another attempt with the same company yesterday. When I called the phone number on my credit report, I was connected to - different departments. The first person I spoke with " - '' said there was an account opened, then he said he thought it was closed, and I did n't need to worry about it. When I repeated that there was another attempt about four times he finally connected me to the fraud department and I had the same thing happen there. Then the woman " - '' refused to look into the application pending until I insisted several times. Finally she said she found it and started a fraud claim. When I told her the last time this happened ( Three prior attempts ) it took four months to have the inquiry removed from my credit file. Then she told me that was n't her problem and I would have to resolve that with the credit bureau. I reminded her that the last time this happened, the bank requested it be removed. She refused to provide any assistance. I am very upset that I have not been informed of who is doing this and that the person, is still belligerently attempted to open credit with my information. I have asked to bank to put a freeze to alert on my ss # number, and they refused saying I 'd just have to keep calling in and reporting a fraud.
