Worried over daughters identity

Thank author of this post/commentI recently made a mistake that I'm afraid will effect my daughter and wanted to get advice on what to do. I had to visit the court house to apply for a name change for my daughter. I parked 2 blocks away and retrieved my copy of her social security card and birth certificate (both regular paper copies, not originals). I folded the copies and put them in my back pocket. I stopped in City Hall to speak to a friend and then walked to the courthouse. When I got to the courthouse the copies were gone!

I immediately retraced my steps several times (spent an hour looking) and asked every business along the way, including the Police Dept. if anyone had found it. I'm at a loss, not sure what I should do next. The area where I lost the documents is full of illegals and shady characters, I'm sure if one of them found it they would not turn it in as lost. Have I completely opened my young daughter up to identity theft? What should I do next? I can just see some junky using my daughters social security number to rack up credit cards. I didn't think to file a police report at the time but should I do it now? This happened last Friday. Thanks for your help and advice.

Hello,

Here's what I would suggest:

Contact the one of the credit bureau fraud departments. Explain the situation and ask them to put an "alert" on her file. This will signal to businesses to be cautious when "she" applies for credit. This alert will stay on for 90 days. Everytime she applies for credit in the next 90, the creditor will contact you/her for verification.

One phone call should do the job of notifying all 3 bureaus. Here are the phone numbers:

Experian 1-888-397-3742

Equifax 1-800-525-6285

TransUnion 1-800-680-7289

Hope this helps!

Best of luck!
