Ilker, a victim of identity theft from Melbourne, is facing safety concerns after discovering his stolen license number was linked to a hit-and-run incident. Despite reporting the theft and receiving a new license, Ilker’s personal information continues to be misused in fraudulent activities, affecting his credit score and mortgage prospects. Conflicting information from VicRoads and Victoria Police has hindered resolution, prompting Ilker to seek a new license number. While efforts are underway, obtaining a new license may not entirely prevent future fraud risks.
