We think our estranged daughter ( 28 years old, hasn’t spoken to us in over two years) maybe trying to steal our identity to get a loan or credit.
Brief history, she was never good with money, always in debt , and last time we spoke we had just paid off 10k of her debt, the she stopped talking to us because we wouldn’t give her anymore money.
Out of the blue she has just got in touch, very brief unemotional emails.
She has asked for our new address as she needs for work, some CRB check.
She has just had a second granddaughter (we have never been involved or seen the first one).
She claims she needs a copy of our birth certificate to apply for the new babies passport. Checked on the gov website and that is not true.
We are suspicious due to previous money issues, like using our credit cards, trying to take money from our account.
Plus asking for this info isn’t needed.
Plus , I believe, if she has address , date of birth, birth certificate , this info could be used to steal identify for loans, credit etc.
So are we being mad, too suspicious, ?
Any advice , or guidance appreciated.
