ORDER DENYING CONFIRMATION AND DISMISSING CASE SIDNEY M. WEAVER, Bankruptcy Judge. THIS CASE came on to be heard on ¡August 26, 1988 for confirmation of the Debtors’ proposed Chapter 13 Plan, the Court having heard from counsel for the Debtors, counsel for the Trustee and vari *568 ous other interested parties and counsel, and being otherwise fully advised in the premises, it is ORDERED as follows: 1. That upon the request of the Trustee, this case is hereby dismissed with prejudice to the Debtor ever refiling a bankruptcy proceeding in this or any other bankruptcy court within the United States of America. 2. That dismissal of this case is based upon the failure of the Debtors to appear at the Section 341 Meeting of Creditors or at the Confirmation Hearing and, additionally, on the failure of the Debtors to accurately and completely execute their schedules and statement of financial affairs. In fact, the Debtors have attempted to perpetuate a fraud on this Court and on the creditors of the Debtors’ estate by altering their names and social security numbers in order to file the instant bankruptcy proceeding, while failing to list the prior bankruptcies filed by them and responding to the question in the statement of affairs regarding prior bankruptcies by stating that there were no prior bankruptcies filed by these Debtors. 3. That the Court has been provided with information relating to the social security numbers utilized by the Debtors in this and other proceedings, which information is attached hereto as Exhibit “A” * and indicates the use by these Debtors of fraudulent social security numbers belonging to other persons, some of which are deceased. Attached hereto as Exhibit “B” is a bankruptcy history of the Debtors indicating the various bankruptcies filed by these Debtors and the social security numbers and names utilized in those cases together with all pertinent case number and disposition information as well as the trustee assigned to each particular case. 4. That based upon the foregoing, the Court finds that the Debtors have grossly abused the bankruptcy process in the United States and have flagrantly violated the rules relating thereto, all of which merits the dismissal of this case with prejudice to the refiling of any bankruptcy proceedings by these Debtors at any time in the future. 5.That the Trustee shall turn the foregoing information over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for any further proceedings which may be appropriate.
