I've been a victim of identity theft in Europe. Took many letters to several police departments in the UK and various states in Germany over the course of five years... I've not been stopped at EU airports for awhile but I am still not 100% sure if my name is on the Interpol blacklist still. The process of clearing your name is totally opaque. A helpful officer at London MET assured me to undertake the work to do it. The amount of times I've had to explain the very concept of "identity theft" to enforcement is just crazy. And sadly I don't think they fully understand it most of the time. I'm a little afraid to travel to eastern Europe, since this "advance fee" for a VW fraud in my name is particularly common there and I am tired of receiving threats. Sigh....
