Description

I was doing my recertification, my annual recertification for metropolitan housing authority also known as HUD housing. When they notified me that I didn't report taxes being filed in my name for the year and I told them that's impossible and I didn't file any taxes this yr. Only my city taxes and it was 0 income for the year. I haven't filed taxes since 2018 and I'm disabled. They gave me a real hard time about the situation and had me crying from trying to call me a liar. It was absolutely horrible everything I had to go through just to prove that it wasn't me who did any of this. I've been at the same address and with metropolitan housing for over 15 years now. Well I had to go in for pre-trial hearing and take any kind of evidence I could in order to prove my case. Well meanwhile I did win the case I had enough of my own evidence to prove that it wasn't me seeking employment and filing multiple taxes for multiple years at these places. After my hearing I asked could I have a copy of the information they received or anything I could get so I could report this to my local police and the IRS. They did give me a printout of the only information they had received. The printout that I received has the state and business that the scammer was employed from, and the amount made in my name. The scammer has been using my information since 2016. At least that's what I'm aware of at this time. I think they are still using my name and social security number at this time. I managed to only put a hold on my credit report this far since I just received the printout. I was hoping to get my story out there to stop this person from stealing from me and prevent it from happening to anyone else. And to get some guidance on what to do next so I can have my information only used by me.
