Identity Theft Consulting

IDENTITY THEFT AND BUSINESSES

It is actually easier to steal a business' identity than an individual's and in certain cases less likely to be detected. All the information an identity thief needs is filed at either a local or state level.

BUSINESS LIABILITY

There have been a number of new laws that aim to stem identity theft. These place the business as the responsible party protect non public information. Most businesses, business owners, and HR Managers don't realize that if there is a breach in either their employees' or customers' non public data, then the business can be held 100% liable, including federal and state fines, civil lawsuits, and even jail time for owners and executives.

PERSONAL IDENTITY THEFT

Identity Theft is the fastest growing white collar crime in North America and it is getting worse by the day. Between February 2005 and January 2007 over 100 million person's personal information has been lost, stolen, or hacked.

That coupled with personal information being readily available online through thousands of databases (an example is http://www.zabasearch.com), there is no way that a person can absolutely protect themselves.
