ID Theft Police Report

A number of folks in the slashdot crowd called me a liar about my catching the ID thieves. I've been a bit of a slug about it, but I finally received the police report (3.4 Megs). That file contains 10 pngs. The first 8 are the police report. The next two contain some interesting arrest information about the individual who wasn't charged.

Why didn't they charge him?

There were two individuals, but only one was charged because he was the person in physical possession of the documents.

Oh well. One is better than none I guess.

How did they get the credit card info in the first place?

I never found out. I think that I probably had some credit card "convenience" checks that I accidentally threw in recycling instead of destroying, but I can't prove that. In any event, those all go in the fireplace now and my CC companies have promised not to send any more.
