HEIGHTS — The victim of identity theft told police that someone used her identity and charged four of her credit accounts in online purchases at four stores.

According to the report, the charges happened Aug. 25. The charges were $400 at Target, $300 at Macy’s, $300 at Kohl’s and $1,500 at Overstock. The victim said she did not make the purchases and that the person who charged all the accounts used a phone number, which she provided. The items also were set up to be delivered at an address which was also given to police.

Credit companies were contacted to have the orders stopped and the victim was in the process of canceling her credit cards.
