Recent Identity Theft Statistics
Identity theft (ID theft or identity fraud) is the deliberate appropriation of an individual's personal information to impersonate that person in a legal sense. Stealing someone's identity enables the thief to make a frightening number of financial and personal transactions in someone else's name, leaving the victim responsible for what might turn out to be a mind-boggling turmoil in his or her life.
Benefits of Identity Theft Shield
Attorney General John Ashcroft called identity theft as "one of the fastest growing crimes in the United States". Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the leading governmental agency which keeps records on identity theft, estimates that over 9 million Americans (or 4.25% of all adults) are victims of ID theft on an annual basis, resulting in $52.6 billion losses to businesses and financial institutions.
