I am facing a civil harassment case involving someone who pretended to be a friend and then stole my personal information, including my Social Security card, passport, and other important documents. I reported this to the police, but they have not taken action. The individual is also using my Social Security information for fraudulent activities. I am seeking assistance in handling this serious matter.
