Or anyone near-by tell me if someone actually lives there ?

This guy added himself to my business Chase card and requested a second card to be sent to him... got alerted at around 10:30 last night. He would need to have my name, address, SS #, and mothers maiden name.

Looks like I am buying some Life Lock today.

That's not good. My little sister did the same thing to me 2 years ago. I didn't know about it until after she maxed out the credit card that she got in my name and tried to raise the limit.

i beleive life lock only helps pay when something like this happens (not stops it). but also your credit cards have kinda like the same deal. they will all help fix something like this and they will also pay for everything. i may be wrong but my american express has some kind of thing where if my identity is stolen they will pay all charges and up to 100k for other crap and help contact the correct people to fix everything. so id check that out asap

lifelock prevents people from stealing your identity/contacts you/ has a million dollar repairment thing or w/e as well... or something outragously high like that.

The way I found out is my automated Chase alerts... was out drinking with some Team Sundown guys and I got an e-mail on my Blackberry telling me this dude added himself to my account.

Life Lock offers that when ANYTHING changes on your credit or with your information. I am going to sign up after I finish adding another password layer to all of my credit cards... you can ask for this, ANOTHER password to change the account beyond Card number, SS #, mothers maiden name, and address.

I would immediately scan my computer for viruses and malware. Use a 30-day trial of Kaspersky AV, NOD32, or Avira Antivir for the viruses. Then use Malware Bytes Antimalware for the malware.

Then I would immediately change all passwords, all secret questions, etc. Make them something that isnt a real word with capitols, symbols, upper and lower case letters. Makes it 10x harder to guess. After you do all that your online stuff may be protected. Its possible he knows your email address password or any other password now.

Yep... in the process of changing everything right now.

Dont change everything until you scan your computer. If he has a trojan and has backdoor access to your computer he can see all the changes your doing and its a waste of time.

NOD32 = yum.

Nod32, KAV, and Avira = Top 3

Eset Trial

KAV Trial

Avira Free

Malware Bytes Free Edition

Think I should run ALL of those or one will suffice ?

Run 1 of the first 3 and run the last 1. You cant go wrong with any of the first 3. They are all right on par with each other. The last one scans for something totally different. Make sure you update the definitions before you scan so its the most current database. If you dont it may not catch everything or anything at all if its a recent infection.
