Identity Theft is Serious and Costly

It is one of the fastest growing crimes in the United States and worldwide. In fact, it has been the #1 consumer complaint for 7 consecutive years and there are 27,000 new victims daily. If it happens to you, or a member of your household, would you know what to do about it?

Experience shows that victims spend, on average, more than 175 hours of personal time to recover from the damage caused by identity theft. In addition, the out-of-pocket costs of resolution can run between $750 and $1,800.
