THE VICTIM WAS TOLD BY THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT HE HAD AN EXISTING BALANCE. HE TOLD THE REPRESENTATIVE HE HAS NEVER HAD ACCOUNT WITH XFINITY/COMCAST. HE WAS TOLD HIS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER HAD BEEN USED TO OPEN THE ACCOUNT IN QUESTION. THE VICTIM WAS ABLE TO HAVE THE REPRESENTATIVE TELL HIM THE ACCOUNT WAS OPENED IN RIVIERA BEACH. AT SOME POINT THE VICTIM HAD A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR CHECK INTO THE ISSUE AND FIND THAT THE LISTED SUSPECT HAD USED THE VICTIM'S SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER AND POSSIBLY HIS DATE OF BIRTH UNLESS SHE HAS THE SAME DATE OF BIRTH. Page Z of Z Uomplamt Nmnber: 17-U914 AFTER TAKING THE INITIAL REPORT I DID SOME RESEARCH IN DAVID(DRIVERS LICENSE DATA BASE) AND DISCOVERED THE SUSPECT HAS A VERY SIMILAR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER WHICH IS ONLY ONE DIGIT OFF FROM THE VICTM. HER DATE OF BIRTH IS ALSO THE SAME DAY. THIS COULD BE A COINCIDENCE OR A TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR AT COMCAST AT THE TIME OF THE SUSPECT OPENING HER ACCOUNT. I CHECKED FOR PHONE NUMBERS BUT WAS UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH THE SUSPECT FOR CLARIFICATION OF HER COMCAST ACCOUNT INFORMATION OR THAT A CRIME HAS BEEN COMMITTED. A CRIMINAL HISTORY WAS ALSO REQUESTED FOR INVESTIGATIVE PURPOSES TO CORROBORATE ANY INFORMATION WHICH MAY HELP WITH THIS CASE. I ALSO TRIED TO CONTACT XFINITY/COMCAST VIA PHONE BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL DUE TO LONG WAIT TIMES AND LACK OF PHONE NUMBERS FOR ACCOUNT QUESTIONS. INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING.
