The Supreme Court recently put the spotlight on Identity Theft (albeit by making it more difficult to use federal ID-Theft laws in other prosecutions). So, we thought that this would be a good time to look at the ways that people can protect themselves from identity theft, and recover faster if they are the unfortunate victims of one of the fastest growing crimes in the world.
Over the past several years, many new laws have been enacted to help people protect against identity theft. These laws include the powerful Security Freeze process that is now available to residents of every state. With a security freeze, anyone can make it nearly impossible for someone else to obtain credit in the original person’s name. This relatively simple process can take away most, if not all, of the financial benefits (for the criminal) and risks (for the potential victim) of ID theft.
