Identity/SSAN theft

[tiger4]

What is the name of your state? Louisiana
What area of law covers the using of someone else's SSAN to conduct business & apply for credit? Also, I live in one state while perpetrator lives in different state, so who has jurisdiction? Since this deals with fed SSAN, can I assume this is a fed crime?
