Im a victim of identity theft during Covid-19 and I haven't found the answer's I've been searching for until now! I love the fact that there is a way besides biometric apis to verify my identity in a more unique and personal way. Answer to my prayers! The only problem i have is that I can't get my id and or state id without the verification number and bc my credentials where stolen I've b even having trouble obtaining other important documents required by the dmv to get my id replaced. This person really wrecked my life. They were able to obtain my personal information on file and then steal my id from my wallet along with the documents in my file cabinet. Leaving me with any form of documentation. And I believe they are still using my name.! Thank you for your information it was really helpful to my situation!
