A first-person monologue from a YouTube video by Daniel Rosen describing an experience where the speaker's identity was stolen and incorrectly reported as deceased. The misreporting caused problems with credit bureaus and the speaker’s employer/HR, producing stress, attempts to verify aliveness, and workplace scrutiny. The excerpt is informal and anecdotal; later chunks may add timeline or resolution.
I guess I'm a corpse paying taxes. So I'm not exactly sure what happened, but my identity was stolen and then was reported as deceased. Yeah, I've been trying my damnedest to prove to the credit bureaus that I'm alive. Offered for them to even personally check my pulse. Shockingly, nobody wanted to ask my work to help me verify my identity. I don't know. I'm desperate at this point. Corporate HR told me I was coming up as deceased, and now I'm under severe scrutiny. I'm every manager's wet dream. I show up to work even when I'm. I'm sorry for your loss, Rip and peace.
