My information was stolen without my knowledge. She has been receiving my payments and has lied about receiving them. How do I get my money back?

My ex-roommate has received both of my payments. I need to figure out how to stop my money from going into her account.

After you file

File a police report for theft of funds.

After you file

Notify the IRS, state, credit bureaus, etc.  re Identity Theft as well.

If any of this was done through the mail, also file a report with the Postal Inspector.

After you file

The police won't do anything.

 

You can report fraudulent Tax Returns to the IRS on a form they supply for that purpose.

 

The only way to get your money is to file a correct return for yourself on paper. IRS will investigate the conflict.
