My husband received a letter from the Louisiana Workforce Commission about a Pandemic Unemployment Assistance claim. He didn't file it. So, I've reported the fraud online to the Louisiana Workforce Commission; I've reviewed his credit reports and they look fine; I've put a fraud alert on his credit; and, I've reported it to the FTC on IdentityTheft.gov. Is there anything else we should do besides maybe a credit freeze?

Got the same and my wife told me a friend of hers did as well. Probably our great state just screwing things up on their own.
