Courtney Love, a Victim of Identity Theft?

Courtney Love is now claiming she is the victim of identity theft.

Last week American Express went after the Hole singer for an outstanding balance and fees of more than $350,000. But now she's refuting the charges, claiming someone has stolen her identity.

“She’s not a person without means,” says her private investigator. “We’re ready to go to the LAPD because someone gained access to her Social Security number and applied for cards in her name. It’s astounding AmEx didn’t question the charges beforehand.”

Why wouldn’t you go to the police to begin with? Or file a dispute with AmEx when you first got the bill in the mail? (Just like the rest of us, you're only liable for the first $50 in fraudulent charges if you report them promptly. That would have gotten you off the hook for the other $352,009.67!)

Oh right, we almost forgot. Cuz you're a funky, nutty, hot mess.
