Start by contacting Cingular and make sure this isn’t just a billing foul up with a collection agency; it happens. You will also need them to start a fraud investigation on the phone in question; and you will probably need the info they give you for a police report. You can dispute that by contacting the credit bureau and having them send you the forms to dispute a statement.
