    Once you report to once credit bureau’s fraud division, all of them update the information. You can start with Transunion. They’re number is (800) 680-7289. Good luck!

    First, find out the name of the credit card company, call them and ask them if they have a copy of the application. and at the same time have it cancelled and have them report it to the fraud department.
    Do you think possibly your 78 year old mother may have forgotten?
    You say it’s on “her account”.

    when you did the annual credit check, those are the companies you need to call as well. Transunion for example.
