PINELLAS COUNTY — In March 2019 Corey, who asked that her last name not be used, drove to Largo’s East Lake Park to walk her dogs. Corey stashed her purse under the driver’s seat but a thief smashed the driver’s window and snatched her purse.
According to a Largo Police report, Corey’s wallet contained multiple credit cards along with her driver’s license. “I blocked everything, canceled all my cards.” Said Corey who thought that was the end of it. But then in March, the Hertz Rental Car Group mailed Corey urgent notices regarding a missing rental car that was rented in her name in Miami. “I was very confused and very anxious because I did not know what it was about.”
