Frequently Asked Questions
What is identity theft?
Identity theft is a form of fraud where someone uses your personal identifying information - like your name, Social Security number, or credit card number - without your permission and for their own personal gain, often at your expense.

How do I know if my identity has been stolen?
If you are contacted by financial institutions about credit lines or loans you didn't open, that's an immediate sign of identity theft. Unusual activity on your credit cards or bank statements could also be an indication of identity theft. In this case, get a copy of your credit report, and if it doesn't look right, contact the credit bureaus.

How do I report identity theft?
Contact the three credit bureaus - Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion - to place them on fraud alert so that no one can open credit in your name.
