What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
I recently was the victim of an identity theft. The cashier at a store took my credit card information (including the three digit number on the back of the card), went home and charged my number to porno sites. From the phone numbers of the porno sites, which was on my credit card statement, I was able to obtain the AOL addresses from which they were charged. I called the local police dept, filed a complaint, had a couple of conversations with the officer but now, and for months, the investigating officer has not returned any phone calls back. Two weeks ago, I filed a complaint with the Attorney Generals office, who also couldn't get the officer to respond. However the attorney did get a response from AOL.
The officer had written in the police report, that he had a judge authorize a subpoena to get the identity of those five AOL addresses, as far back as May. This week, the Attorney General's office forwarded me a recent letter from AOL saying they had never received a subpoena and weren't at liberty to disclose the identities of the individual, without one.
The officer blatantly lied on the police report. My suspicion is that he had a friend or acquaintance working at this retail store and is protecting that person. He's been called at least ten times by myself and the attorney general's office and not responded to any of the calls. This week, I called his supervisor who promised me a call back, from him or this officer. Five days later, and still no call from anyone.
Do I go to the police chief or to a lawyer?
