Tweeters offered Fox News Anchor Heather Childers solace and some empathy:
@HeatherChilders Anyone who would do that feels no shame, hopefully they feel the inside of a prison cell!

@HeatherChilders That's too bad. Someone charged a hotel stay in Paris to 1 of my credit cards a year ago. I only WISH I could go to Paris!

As it turns out, the person who stole Childers’ identity isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. Oops, somebody might have forgotten to unclick the “billing address same as shipping address” box:
STEAL someone's id & use their money 2 buy gifts & it will come 2 THEIR address! Not smart! About 2b busted! #idtheft pic.twitter.com/2CA2jmHnZm

Nothing says “I love you, dad” like a thoughtful gift purchased with a stolen credit card and sent to the home of the person from whom it was stolen.
We hope Childers’ identity thief is nabbed quickly.
