Identity Theft
Fighting Identity Theft
By James H. Dimmitt
Chances are good that you know someone who has been
victimized by the fastest growing crime - identity theft.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reported that there
were 10 million cases of identity theft in 2002 alone.
It’s estimated that someone’s identity is stolen every 79
seconds.
The bad news is with increasing amounts of personal
information available to an experienced identity thief,
it shows few signs of slowing down. The good news is
that identity fraud is now a federal crime with stiff
penalties for those who perpetrate these crimes.
Here are a few simple steps you can take now to minimize
your risk:
1) Check your credit report annually, if not more often.
Most victims of identity theft don’t realize they’ve been
victimized until 14 months after the crime. By then the
damage is done and you will spend a significant amount of
time and money trying to correct it.
2) Keep your Social Security number private. Do not have
it printed on your personal checks or drivers license. Do
not share it with anyone, including merchants, unless
they can provide a good reason for having it. Once
someone has your Social Security number they have the key
to unlocking your identity and using it fraudulently.
3) Shred offers for pre-approved credit cards that you
receive by mail. Do the same with any receipts that
contain account numbers or your Social Security number.
Identity thieves are not afraid to go “dumpster diving”
in order to obtain your personal information.
Identity theft has become the fastest growing crime
because it is the most profitable crime. On average, the
loss from identity theft is about $18,000.00. Taking
these precautions now can you save you from becoming
another statistic in the fight against identity theft.
