Book Description
This report responds to your request that we review federal and state efforts to address identity theft, which has been characterized by law enforcement as the fastest growing type of crime in the United States. As noted in our May 1998 report, identity theft or identity fraud generally involves "stealing" another person's personal identifying information-such as Social Security number (SSN), date of birth, and mother's maiden name-and then using the information to fraudulently establish credit, run up debt, or take over existing financial accounts. Later that year, Congress passed the Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act of 1998 (the Identity Theft Act). Enacted in October 1998, the federal statute made identity theft a separate crime against the person whose identity was stolen, broadened the scope of the offense to include the misuse of information as well as documents, and provided punishment-generally a fine or imprisonment for up to 15 years or both. Also, since 1998, most states have enacted laws that criminalize identity theft. Thus, various federal and numerous state and local law enforcement agencies are responsible for investigating identity theft crimes. Relevant federal agencies include the Secret Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Postal Inspection Service, as well as the Social Security Administration's (SSA) Office of the Inspector General (OIG), which receives SSN misuse and other identity theft-related allegations on its fraud hotline.

Identity Theft
Author: Sandra K. Hoffman
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1598841440
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
A comprehensive examination of different forms of identity theft and its economic impact, including profiles of perpetrators and victims and coverage of current trends, security implications, prevention efforts, and legislative actions. What are the common forms of identity theft? Who are the most likely targets? What is law enforcement doing to counter a crime perpetrated not only by petty thieves and sophisticated con artists, but by terrorists, money-launderers, and those involved in human trafficking, drug trafficking, and illegal immigration? Identity Theft: A Reference Handbook examines these questions and more. With the 1998 Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act as its starting point, this informative volume begins by explaining the federal, state, and global definitions of identity theft and how the lack of a standardized approach masks the true pervasiveness of the problem. In addition to addressing the crime's perpetrators, methods, and victims, the book also looks at what individuals, businesses, and the government are doing—and should consider doing—to curb the growth of this crime.
