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:

You may need to contact one of these referral firms in order to find an attorney.

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:

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
