I'd be terrified that the cops would show up to raid the house looking for one of these random people.

How disgusting is it that it takes a news story to start an investigation. Just a regular person complaining to these government departments will not get any help. This is our horrible government at work. Criminals win and good honest citizens pay the price.

I had something similar happen to me in south Florida. Apparently a guy kept running SunPass tolls and the first 5 digits in his license were the same as mine. The last one was obscured so they just guessed at what it was and sent the bills to me. They even got a freeze put on my license renewal. The office responsible for this isn't even in Florida, it's in Georgia. The easiest proof it wasn't me (which they refused to listen to) was the vehicle in their images was a black pickup and mine was a green SUV! They had enough info from my registration to get my address but then ignored the vehicle description! It took a very long time with many phone calls to finally get to talk to someone in management at the Florida DMV to just look at the pics and registration to get it straightened out. Then it happened all over again 6 months later! Fortunately the woman who fixed it the first time was still there and fixed it right away. They decided to give me a new, different plate number to make sure it never happened again!

...and the post office didn't suspect anything????

You might think that with current technology the government could find any single address with more than 10 registered personal vehicles and deny any new applications with that address. Flag all the license plates as stolen vehicles and arrest the occupants for felony theft. That could put a stop to it.

What is so amusing. That when you showed up on their door asking questions. A criminal investigation was launched and the letters seems to have stopped. You will never hear anything again.

what a headache for her with all that mail

Our law enforcement agencies are woefully incompetent if they can't notice that there are a large number of names tacked onto a single address. Hundreds of people can't all be living at the same place!

I'm surprised she hasn't been arrested. The fumbling law enforcement takes the easiest path.

Why are they blurring out the faces of the perpetrators? Makes no sense!

A swat team might raid her house.

She should be terrified the cops are gonna kick her door in at 3am looking to arrest someone who has done something bad thinking they live at that address and end up shooting her by mistake for defending her home in the middle of the night. It's happened before, hope it doesn't again.

I got tolls for LIMOUSINES! Nobody checked the plates to the description of my ford focus brown!!! It was thousands! I called and had to pay to send pics of my car and proof i wasnt at the toll during the time the guy ran the toll in the bay area California. I live 4.5hrs away from this toll and this guy was going through every few hrs! The one letter on the plate was an "I" and my plate was a "T!" The plate was blocked! Nobody even checked it! I had to fight it for 2yrs!

Can you imagine? You don’t even have to show proof of residence! 😤

Thats crazy. I been getting tollway charges from Florida but i live in Texas. Never even been to Florida

It could have been worse. I had a felony fugitive warrant issued on me in Miami, Florida, for 2 felony hit and run accidents, fleeing, eluding, and avoiding capture. I have never been to Miami. Someone got a vehicle tag issued under my name and address. I almost went to jail and could have gone to prison for up to 10 years. Luckily, my time clock records and video evidence at my job verified my whereabouts at the time of the incident, and I couldn't have been in two places at once.

Definitely a scam. Something is going on. Following for updates 😊

Someone at the DMV sold people's personal information.

Florida sold all the names and addresses of vehicle owners to a private database company that then sold the information to multiple companies. The state made over 80 million dollars by doing this. That’s why everyone gets those extended warranty letters.
