[Answered, leaving it up in case anyone else did not know]What's the best way to find out if my identity was stolen?
I’ve been getting spam from an apparently real debt collection company but the thing is I’ve only ever owed debt to two entities: my credit card and the government (fucked up my withholdings once). I know I don’t owe shit, so either it’s a scam that’s impersonating a real agency or somebody stole my identity and they think I do. Which is possible, for reasons I won’t go into.
Get a credit report. You're legally entitled to a free one every year.
I saw that, but the site looked ai written. Is there one you know for a fact isn’t a scam? I genuinely don’t trust search engines at all anymore and it makes searching for this info hard.
