Contact Social Security and make sure that your Soc Sec number is in order. Let them know about the issue. There might be some clever way that someone is trying to steal your identity. You could also contact the card companies and tell them about it. The credit report company gets info from them somehow; maybe they can help. You may have to provide proof of identity, such as a birth certificate, to prove you're really you and, therefore, still alive.
