In
the course of a busy day, you may write a check at the grocery
store, charge tickets to a ball game, rent a car, mail your tax
returns or apply for a credit card. Chances are you don’t give
these everyday transactions a second thought. But someone else
WILL!
The 2000’s have spawned a new variety of crooks called identity
thieves. Their stock in trade is your everyday transactions. Each
transaction requires you to share personal information, your bank
and credit card account numbers, your income; your Social Security
number. An identity thief co-opts some piece of your personal
information and appropriates it without your knowledge to commit
fraud or theft.

Ripped Off! Get Help! Tell It to George” is a dynamic consumer
survival guide filled with advice and answers to consumer
problems.
She informs consumers about the most common types of identity
theft, and what to do if their identities are stolen. Bercowetz

ID thieves.
