Thanks,
Anon because my office is aware of this situation.

I'm going to assume you've already called your credit card issuers, and that you've filed a police report.
Fraud alerts on the credit reports aren't a bad idea.
In the alternative, you could have really lousy credit. A while ago, my (then) husband's identity was stolen. We were so deeply in debt with student loans, houses, cars, etc. that the thief tried and failed to open accoutns at Sears, Wilson Leather and Best Buy. Good times.
