Who are Identity Thieves?

Who are identity thieves? The thief could be the guy next door who is stealing your mail or going through your trash to steal your personal information. Or the employee in the HR Department at your workplace who is stealing your personal information or selling it. What about the person working at your doctor or dentist’s office, or in your insurance agent’s office? The people at the bank, or the mortgage company from where you just obtained your mortgage?

Identity thieves are everywhere.

Identity theft is a nightmare! On average, identity theft victims spend an average of 600 hours or more over 44 months trying to repair their credit and take back their identity. And, victims of identity theft are often denied employment, and rental leases due to their damaged credit. In addition, with the bad credit that isn’t even their doing, they will usually pay higher insurance rates, be denied personal, car, or mortgage loans, and credit cards. Even worse, there are reports of identity theft victims being arrested for crimes they didn’t commit!
