You may want to monitor your credit. As far as the e-mails go, I receive those from time to time. You may be want to refer them to your State Attorney’s office as I’ve heard that they are investigating these scams. Just don’t answer them.
Do not ever, ever, ever give your personal information to one of those scam artists who tell you there is money in an account for you, who wants you to help him move funds, who wants to give you your lottery winnings (you never bought a ticket) or who says your dead namesake left you a gazillion bucks and all they need is your info to give it to you. You will get taken for everything they can get their hands/computers on. These are crooks who sit in a cyber cafe in Nigeria all day, every day and try out different schemes on people like us until they can get one to work. As far as the e-bills go, you should look up your states Attorney Generals’ web site and contact the AG for help.
