If you are the legitimate owner of the account, you should contact the bank in which the account was opened.  Assuming you can provide adequate proof of identity, they would be able to provide the account number.\n\nIt's also possible that you could obtain it from the bank over the phone, but they may need positive proof.

Be very careful of these credit/collection companies. Many of them are scams who will get personal information out of you and steal from your credit cards or bank accounts.\n\nDeal with the company you actually owe the money to: if the credit/collection company doesn't know your name, won't provide clear information on whom they are collecting for, or asks you for your checking/savings account number, then don't give it to them. \n\nSometimes, these scammers will auto-dial you, so they won't even know your name or telephone number. Hang up on them, and don't let them intimidate you. They make themselves sound official and threatening.\n\nIf they try to pull any shenanigans with you, threaten them back by asking for their phone number, contact name, and you can use the *57 feature on your phone to trace the call.\n\nDon't fall for these scammers

Try calling all three credit bureaus to find out what is going on, maybe they can help. They may have you write a letter disputing these items anyway.\nEquifax: 1-866-798-6598\nExperian: 1-800-734-4617\nTransUnion: 1-800-888-4213\nGood luck to you!

If they aren't asking for you by name, tell them that no one by that name lives at your number, that you have had that phone number for (tell them in years/months, however long it has been). Be polite and offer to answer any questions they have. Then ask them to please indicate in their records that they do not have the correct number and to please stop calling you.\n\nGenerally, if you are polite and helpful to them, they will stop bothering you.\n\nIf, however, they are asking for someone with your name, you may be a victim of identity theft. Get as much information from them as you can about what was purchased, when, where and what information the person gave when making the purchase. Check your credit report and see if there is activity on it that is not connected to you. If you do have a case of identity theft, you have more problems ahead of you getting it cleared up.

Amazingly, I dom't think there is one.\n\nI would contact them directly and ask them how to purchase credit. There must be a way as they have a table of pricing!

Best bet is to order a credit report. This way not only do you get information about the old credit card account you are able to get an up to date account of your entire credit history.\n\nHere is some information on how to get your credit report:\n\nQ: How do I order my free report?\n\nA: The three nationwide consumer reporting companies have set up a central website, a toll-free telephone number, and a mailing address through which you can order your free annual report.\n\nTo order, visit annualcreditreport.com, call 1-877-322-8228, or complete the Annual Credit Report Request Form and mail it to: Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281. The form is on the back of this brochure; or you can print it from ftc.gov/credit. Do not contact the three nationwide consumer reporting companies individually. They are providing free annual credit reports only through annualcreditreport.com, 1-877-322-8228, and Annual Credit Report Request Service, P.O. Box 105281, Atlanta, GA 30348-5281.\n\nYou may order your reports from each of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies at the same time, or you can order your report from each of the companies one at a time. The law allows you to order one free copy of your report from each of the nationwide consumer reporting companies every 12 months.\n\nA Warning About “Imposter” Websites\nOnly one website is authorized to fill orders for the free annual credit report you are entitled to under law – annualcreditreport.com. Other websites that claim to offer “free credit reports,” “free credit scores,” or “free credit monitoring” are not part of the legally mandated free annual credit report program. In some cases, the “free” product comes with strings attached. For example, some sites sign you up for a supposedly “free” service that converts to one you have to pay for after a trial period. If you don’t cancel during the trial period, you may be unwittingly agreeing to let the company start charging fees to your credit card.\n\nSome “imposter” sites use terms like “free report” in their names; others have URLs that purposely misspell annualcreditreport.com in the hope that you will mistype the name of the official site. Some of these “imposter” sites direct you to other sites that try to sell you something or collect your personal information.\n\nannualcreditreport.com and the nationwide consumer reporting companies will not send you an email asking for your personal information. If you get an email, see a pop-up ad, or get a phone call from someone claiming to be from annualcreditreport.com or any of the three nationwide consumer reporting companies, do not reply or click on any link in the message. It’s probably a scam. Forward any such email to the FTC at spam@uce.gov.\n\nQ: What information do I need to provide to get my free report?\n\nA: You need to provide your name, address, Social Security number, and date of birth. If you have moved in the last two years, you may have to provide your previous address. To maintain the security of your file, each nationwide consumer reporting company may ask you for some information that only you would know, like the amount of your monthly mortgage payment. Each company may ask you for different information because the information each has in your file may come from different sources.\n\nQ: How long does it take to get my report after I order it?\n\nA: If you request your report online at annualcreditreport.com, you should be able to access it immediately. If you order your report by calling toll-free 1-877-322-8228, your report will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days. If you order your report by mail using the Annual Credit Report Request Form, your request will be processed and mailed to you within 15 days of receipt.\n\nWhether you order your report online, by phone, or by mail, it may take longer to receive your report if the nationwide consumer reporting comp

Start by calling your credit card company and freezing your cards. Don't let the creeps use it any more. Also, while yo are on the phone with them, ask them to send you an Affidavit of Forgery. They will usually mail it to you in a few days. To help the police out, ask your company to tell you when and where the card has been used. Get the exact amount of the transactions and any store numbers they may have, including a batch number.\n\nNext, call the police and make a report. Make sure you give them all the data from the credit card company. Having the exact dates, times, and amounts will help them possibly catch the criminals. The problem they have is that security systems will record over their video (usually with 24-48 hours) of the crime. It had gotten much better with the advent of DVR (digital) security recordings, but they still will be erased after a while. \n\nWith all of that said, it's a crap shoot from there on out. Depnding on what the criminals did, they may have screwed up some aspect of your future credit. You need to keep you police report number handy for years to come, I'm afriad. Having a copy of your report can help doubting credit agencies.
