This comedy is a barrel of laughs and includes some great slapstick.

A Denver family man who’s always been responsible with his personal finances, Sandy Bigelow Patterson is shocked to learn that his credit score is in shambles when his identity is stolen. If he can’t clear his name in a week, the mix-up could very well cost him his job.

Fortunately Sandy is in luck; after the unrepentant Florida fraudster who stole his identity causes a stir in a club and misses her court date, Sandy is arrested and promptly released when detectives request a mug shot, and realize their mistake.

When the police refuse to offer any help, Sandy realizes that his only choice is to catch the imposter himself and bring her back to Denver to face justice. Unfortunately, this wily thief isn’t going down without a fight, and with a grizzled skip tracer and a pair of vicious gangsters determined to get the fake Sandy first, every step along the way will be a struggle.
