I have a friend who's dad opened up several credit cards over the years using his sons identity... they have the same name (friend is "Jr")

He's fucked, he just realized he can't get any $ to move.. can't get a car... and I think a couple of jobs turned him down because of it as well.

It sounds simple enough, report him... let him deal with the feds. The prob with that is that his dad just had a stroke like 2 months ago and is pretty messed up... now my buddy is torn.

What would you guys do? Is identity theft guaranteed jail time?

His dad is a dick too, every time he tries to get the $ back from him his dad just starts yelling at him (cop out)... so he's leaning towards "fuck it" and doing it but he's trying to find out what he might put his dad through.

The icing on the cake is that his mom is trying to kick him out and he can't get a job at any kind of retail store because of this (he just found out after months of getting turned down).

He's broke, can't afford a lawyer so I'm going to talk to one of mine for him in a couple of days... in the meantime, what do you guys think?
