I had Identity theft. I have the major credit reports remove 87 inquires, 5 collection account and 2 credit cards. I still have 11 account that are not mine, but I'm in the process of removing them. When I had all these accounts and inquires my credit score went down 56 points, making my credit worse then before. I would like someone to tell me why I lost all these points when damaging items where removed, if you can help me in anyway that would be great. Thanks.
