Identity Theft

Identity Theft

This is an extremely serious Internet threat which is becoming more common. The fraudsters use many techniques, such as phishing and spoofing (sending e-mails from false addresses) to obtain information about potential victims.

If you were a victim of identity theft you could:

Have money taken out of your account
Someone could apply for credit cards on your behalf or they could go buy something and you would get the bill.
