[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is possible to change your SSN if you are the victim of fraud (like being claimed on your parents' return as a dependent)www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10064.pdf

But this will wipe out her credit and she'll have to make sure her earnings history gets transferred to the new SSN.

Make sure you file your taxes ASAP each year so you get your refund before she files and it's her return that gets kicked back, not yours.

You can absolutely report her to the IRS or even call the police on her.  If she's convicted, she can be disbarred.  But be prepared for her to make your life even more of a misery in those situations as she'll (somewhat fairly) blame you, and for her to get even poorer.  [/quote]
What are you talking about ? Who is getting disbarred ???
OMG, all these people need to do is put fraud alerts on their credit and stay away from MIL, make sure has no acess/cannot see any of your  bills, important papers so as to get your info.[/quote]

I'm not sure you understand how much of a hassle it is to be claimed fradulently on someone else's taxes, and how easy it is for someone to do this if they know your SSN.
You also may not know how vigilant bar associations are about punishing people who commit crimes.

So what is your point? It is a pain for anyone to be a victim of fraud, so short of holding the crazy momma hostage to prevent her from defrauding them, WTF do you suggest they do? Crimes of the future are not punishable by law.
They have to protect their credit and stay away from her.
*sigh*[/quote]
