Identity Theft

Identity theft and identity fraud are terms used to refer to all types of crime in which someone wrongfully obtains and uses another person's personal data in some way that involves fraud or deception, typically for economic gain.

If you think you have become a victim of identity theft, follow these steps.

Contact Other Creditors

Contact your other creditors, including credit card and phone companies, banks, and other lenders, to notify them of potential fraud. Close any accounts that have been breached and reopen them with new account numbers and passwords. Do not use your Social Security Number as a username or password.

File a Police Report

Contact your local police department if you suspect that your personal information was stolen. A police report may lend credibility to your case when dealing with creditors, who may require proof of criminal activity.

Report to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)

Call the FTC hotline at 1-877-ID THEFT (1-877-438-4338) to speak with a trained identity theft counselor.

Contact the Major Credit Bureaus
