using an assumed name to obtain credit is totally different, IMHO, to using one's maiden name after marriage... a woman's maiden name is, after all, her name
and whilst one can change one's name (see another thread for that topic!) that again is totally different from "using an assumed name to obtain credit".
it may be the way OP put the original question, but as phrased, that's a crime..IMHO.
the implicatin is that the credit would not have been obtained had person's real name been used.
having said all that... banks etc. are supposed to demand enough ID to sink a battle ship these days, so one wonders how successful one would be unless ALSO having lots of fraudulent ID docs about the place...
