Ex Factor

By Jerry Danzig

On May 10, a 67-year-old woman living on Park Avenue reported a credit card scam to police. She said that her credit card companies had informed her that dating back to Monday, April 29, multiple store cards had been opened using her first name and her ex-husband's last name, which she had never used legally. Her Social Security number had been used to create the accounts, and cards had been shipped to her ex-husband's address in Pound Ridge, New York. No arrests have been made, and no charges were made to the accounts.
