Did the person say he was ringing to return the stuff, or just tell you he had it?
I understand about you not realising, ALL my tax records look like boxes of junk.

[first_time_mummy]

he rang and made it sound more like a threat.
My partner said he sounded very dero/bum like, lol.
now were stressing that if he was low enough to steal stuff donated to a charity bin, then he could do anything

[Now we're 3]

Oh you poor thing I can imagine something like that would be stressful at the best of times.

The other people I would suggest you also contact are the police. I'm sure that they would be able to provide advice to you or point you in the right direction as to what you need to do to protect you against identify fraud. Also sure that this won't be the first time that something like this has happened.

Best of luck - keeping fingers crossed all is okay.

what ended up happening? did you throw it in the bin? or accidentally donate it?
Did you have any calls or anything from anyone who may have found it?
Did he end up getting it back?

I so understand ...

You poor thing - what a horrible mistake to make.

All I can suggest is that you google online for identity fraud and/or identity security. It might give you a helpline number or a list of people to contact in the event of such an accident.

Hope it gets sorted soon.
Tess.
