Danr,
Hang on for a bumpy ride. I would be concerned about identity theft as you don't know when and how much a thieving bastard has taken from you. Call the credit reporting companies (3x) and be put on their fraud watch. They will tell you what else to do and although free it is a PIA for sure.

I had my AMEX gold card number being used and never found out how they got it. Hats off to Jeg's Performance Parts for giving me a call and asking if I knew my ship-to address was changed... etc. They told me about my problem first and then volunteered to work with the cops to catch the person. The bogus ship to address was a home about 5 miles from my home. I called the cops and told them about the card theft and I knew the address where stuff was being shipped too. I gave the cops the name and # to the fraud dept at Jeg's who were willing to do a controlled drop and work with the cops direct.

Much to my surprise and dismay the cop I was talking with gave me a very stern warning and kinda seemed pissed I knew the bogus address the scumbags now had many items being shipped too. The cop told me he knew my name and the address I suspected of ripping me off so would press charges on me if I did anything myself !!! Well OK but they also told me they did not have the manpower and would not work with Jeg's or any other company stuff was ordered from using my C card. Leave it alone and be happy I would not have to pay the bill with a fraud alert was his final words.
