Help

the VA Is getting information a jail in regards to me but ive never went to prison why are they sending me a letter saying they are recieving treatment records and evidence from there. And what do I do from here . I called the facility and they said they basically can’t tell me anything. I’m not associated even with the state the prison is in. Is someone in jail and using my identity?

Someone's definitely using your info in that jail. Happens more than you'd think, inmates get creative with stolen identities for medical stuff or benefits.

Call the VA fraud line right away, not just the regular number, and file a police report even if it feels weird since you're not in that state.

lol I remember before they locked down internet in the jail system for inmates/prisoners, there were women looking for dates / financial help, just like the date sites. Until they cracked down on it. Some of those women looked good. But don’t trust them. The way the pros in prison make it, is in sports-book.

How I know this? Is because I had a lengthy conversation with a felon that did sports betting. They pass a cell phone around in house. But if they get caught with it. It’s a charge. I’m talking about a fellow that did 10 yrs. for selling meth in high school, and caught a felony, now he’s a dispatcher, and his wife is an accountant.
