The repercussions of an act of "identity theft" having been committed against you is not relevant to a discussion on whether "identity theft" is the correct word for the crime.
I guess it shows how difficult some of the crimes can be to identify correctly. The 'identity theft' words are the ones used by everyone (except you I guess) to label the crime that happened. (Do a google search on identity theft to realize that even the encyclopedia Britannica and most everybody else uses these words.) I am glad to see that you see a crime has been committed. I am not the one who made up these words but I do think they encapsulate the nature of the crime.
