DURANT, Okla. -- A case of identity theft has been reported in Bryan County.
In a letter sent to a Durant woman about a month ago from asset acceptance, a collection agency for Southwestern Bell, it was stated she had an unpaid account near $1,200.
The victim called the agency and said she did not authorize or open this account which was opened in June 2007 under a P.O. Box in Talihina, Oklahoma.
She told them she was 13 years old when the account was created and did not live in Durant during that time period and had never lived in Talihina.
The agency told camp to file a report in order for the account to be taken off her credit.
