That’s right, you heard me. Most people, when they think of identity theft, think that someone has stole their credit card information and bought a bunch of stuff with it. They are surprised to here that there are actually 5 ways someone could commit identity theft against them.
Five common areas of Identity Theft:
1. Driver’s License Identity Theft: This is when someone uses your information after stealing it to get a driver’s licence in your name or claim to be you if they get pulled over by the police.
2. Social Security Identity Theft: This is when identity thieves use your social security number to gain employment or to report income under your name.
3. Medical Identity Theft: This is when identity thieves use your information for insurance benefits like Medicare and to get medical tests done in your name. A big one is thieves getting HIV tests with their victim’s information.
4. Criminal Identity Theft: This is when identity thieves use your information while committing various crimes. An example of this would be stealing a car and leaving your information for the cops to get.
5. Financial Identity Theft: This is the most popular form of identity theft. This is where identity thieves use your information to open new accounts or gain access to your existing accounts to steal money.
For FREE, you can place a credit freeze through all three agencies. This is the identical protection that LifeLock provides. You can pay them or do it yourself.
