Help! Made a mistake applying for a card. What to do?

Preface: I have a 90 day fraud alert on all 3 bureaus due to a hacking from Scott Trade

 

I made a mistake applying for the Hawaiian Airlines card and realized afterward that I didn't want it. I received a 30 day message due to having a 90 day fraud alert on all 3 bureaus. They say they need to verify additional information in order to process my application. Can I simply ignore this and it will eventually go away, or will it eventually lead to a TU pull from Barclaycard?

 

 

Thanks!

The HP has most likely already occured otherwise they wouldn't know about your fraud alert. When they say they need additional information it usually means they want you to verify stuff on your report.
