Fraud???

All can anyone provide an answer for me? I got a quote through Friday from the aa for a Mercedes Benz slk 280convertible which I don't have. Rang the aa who said I had done an online quote this time last year. I said I hadn't as although most details were right my marital status was wrong. I then checked the big 3 credit agencies and I have about 150 searches on each of two of them but nothing on experian interestingly which I am certain are not mine as many recent ones I know where I was and what I was doing. I've shelled out for cifas protection on Friday to limit my account but am confused as to why there are so many fraudulent searches. I've asked the credit agencies to investigate

Any ideas what is going on as I've never seen anything like this and am obviously very worried about this

Also reported to action fraud. Is there anything else I need to do?

Thanks
