		<description><![CDATA[When “Jonathan” was 14-years-old, his Dad opened a few credit cards and acquired a few utilities in his name—unbeknownst to him. Fast-forward four years and Jon, now with enough money saved for a down payment on a vehicle, is denied financing from a used car dealership. Frustrated but not discouraged he tries another—rejected again. Annoyed but still not discouraged he tries another—rejected a third time. But this time Jon asked why. The car salesman explained to Jon that he pulled his 25-page credit report and found that his credit was terrible. You see, Dad never paid any of the bills he racked up in Jon’s name and now lawyers, bill collectors, and a sheriff with a warrant are coming after Jon—while Dad cannot be found.]]></description>

No one at the busy corner station offered much information after the thief smashed a window and sped off with her house keys, checkbook, driver’s license, car insurance, vehicle registration, nearly $100 in cash, as well as her credit, ATM, and health insurance cards.]]></description>
