Identity Theft—One of the Fastest Growing and
Most Devastating Crimes in the US.
With one simple act, a happy secure family can be left stunned and vulnerable. A thief gets his hands on their personal information and uses it to steal their identity and ruin their credit. The results can be devastating—even worse; it might be months before they know anything is wrong. And it could take thousands of dollars and years of exhausting, frustrating battles to straighten out the mess. Identity theft is one of the fastest growing and most devastating crimes in the US. The average victim of identity theft spent over 607 hours repairing the damage — taking up to a year or more to clear their names. Victims report that these savvy thieves have used their personal information to steal from their bank accounts; open new credit cards, cellular telephone accounts, and auto loans in their name; file for bankruptcy under their names; and even give their names falsely when arrested. Recovering the lost money can be the least of the victims’ worries. Re-establishing their good name often takes years of frustrating phone calls, letters and the enlistment of attorneys.
