I don’t know if this is even the right sub but Google returned nothing so... I just ran my credit report and my ex-boyfriend was listed as my spouse. We never had any financial accounts together, never lived together, never on each others bills etc. Our finances were always 100% separate. We definitely were never married, in fact we only dated for like six months, it wasn’t even that serious. As far as I know, he shouldn’t have had access to my social security number to try to apply for anything without my knowledge (I didn’t keep any important financial documents at his house and he didn’t know where they were at mine, but we broke up because he was secretly insane so I really wouldn’t put anything past him)
I’m not sure if this is just a common mistake that can happen sometimes (although I don’t know how he would have been linked) or if I should be seriously concerned or taking some kind of action. I already disputed it through Experian and they say they removed it but I couldn’t get the other two reports to load to see what they said. I didn’t see anything on the credit report that looked like any open accounts that aren’t mine, but am still concerned, and am wholly inexperienced in these matters.
