Plot Summary
In Denver, a man named Sandy Patterson is tricked into buying phony identity theft protection from con artist Diana over the phone and he reveals all of his personal information. At work, after clashing with his boss Harold Cornish, Sandy receives a call mentioning that he has an appointment at a salon in Florida. Confused, he ignores it when co-worker Daniel Casey suggests that they and others quit and start their own firm. Sandy agrees to join them. When paying for gas, Sandy’s credit card is declined, and the clerk cuts it in half. The card company says that Sandy spent thousands of dollars in Florida, and he is arrested for missing a court date there.
At the Denver police station, detective Reilly eventually determines that Diana stole Sandy’s identity. The police ask Daniel, now Sandy’s boss, about his alleged possession of drugs. Sandy’s name was used to buy drugs from someone named Paolo. When the cops say that they can only do something if the identity thief is in Denver, Sandy offers to retrieve her and convince her to clear his name. At the salon in Winter Park, Florida, Sandy confronts the other ‘Sandy’ aka Diana, who steals his rental car. Finding her address in her abandoned car, he investigates her house, which is full of merchandise and stolen credit cards. The pair scuffle; before Sandy can handcuff her, criminals Marisol and Julian burst in, angry that Diana gave Paolo bad credit cards.
After Sandy and Diana escape, he mentions his plan to restore his reputation, and she agrees to help. Meanwhile, a skiptracer is dispatched to track down Diana for a bounty. Because their IDs are identical, airline flight is impossible, so they travel by car. The skiptracer eventually catches up to the pair, capturing Diana. A chase ensues; she knocks him unconscious, and Sandy rams his van off the road.
