Financial Fraud is a growing problem affecting all age groups and demographics. It can be identity theft, medical identity theft, using a stolen credit card to make purchases, or other ways of using your good name to benefit someone else, such as applying for a credit card, bank account, or even a mortgage using your identity and credit score.

Correcting these issues takes your time and energy. Make no mistake, reclaiming your or your loved one’s identity can take months. Reclaiming an identity is not always easy because cyber thieves have enough information about you to present a convincing case. Adding to the challenge is knowing who to contact and how to go about it. Different types of compromise necessitate different groups be contacted to reclaim the identity and credit.

It may be your information that has been compromised or that of a family member, a parent or child. Yes, children’s identities are also at risk. Cybercriminals do not discriminate on the basis of age or any other factor. They are equal opportunity troublemakers. What all these have in common is that some degree of information about you is now in the hands of people intent on doing you harm.
