Wulf:

One thing you should do first is notify the credit bureaus of the possible identity theft. Here is a link to the FTC on identity theft:

http://www.consumer.gov/idtheft/

You may need to contact one of these referral firms in order to find an attorney. http://www.criminaldefense.com/white...ed5b5bb2db05e7

If you tell me what state you are in, I can probably find someone in your area.

ANother option I was thinking about: I am wondering if you could apply to IRS for new social security number. I have not looked into this in detail, but maybe it's a possibility. Here is their website: http://www.irs.gov

You may try entering a search for "identity theft" or "new social security number"

Lastly, I wonder if you have a cause of action against Wells Fargo, since this is not an isolated event...

Good Luck
