Identity Thefts

Apparently those with outside type mailboxes in my area are being targeted for theft. Opening new bank account details using that address etc and opening the boxes when mail arrives. Spotted and not from these shores ! FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

Here as well, & also in blocks of units, especially with a bank of mail boxes in the foyer, they do them in bulk so to speak! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

United Kingdom 

Happened to a friend of mine in a shared house. The guy downstairs nicked his bank account details just as he had put money in to buy a house. Even more worrying they opened a store account in his name, and when he tried to alert the store they refused to talk to him because his details (dob) didn't match the ones they had been given!
Police knew who did it but apparently weren't too fussed as they were about to arrest the guy downstairs for murder (well, it was the dark side of Peckham). And my friend did get his money back.
First thing they tend to ask if you're a fraud victim, is whether anyone else has access to your mail. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
300TDi Disco (bought new - terrible car) sent back after 18 months
Freelander 1 Estate - leased, given back at end of lease
200TDi Disco (bought from a mate with 100,000 on the clock) - Gone
Disco 2 TD5 - sold and exported to France
FR2 TD4 GS - Gone
FR2 SD4 HSE - Now changed for a DS
New model ex-demo Evoque S 180 in white
Unable to order a new DS, so gave up. Now have a Volvo S90 Recharge.
