you are NOT overreacting.
I had my ID stolen a few years ago (im only 19) and it turned up about a year and a half ago when one of my bosses got a letter saying that she should with hold my wages because i owed $2000 in taxes....further investigation revealed that 2 people had opened up credit card accounts using my SSN and that a third was using it for tax id purposes.
Long story short, this shit still hasnt been resolved. You can contact all the credit card companies and have them put a "fraud alert" on your SSN, and hope for the best.
We still dont know how my SSN got stolen, my mom thinks it was some kind of inside deal through the Department of Motor Vehicles...
I know i sound bitter, but a year of getting the run-around from every law enforcement agency in california will do that to you.
best of luck.
