Identity theft is a huge problem for consumers and the organizations that serve them. In the U.S. alone, five percent of adults – about 10 million – are victimized each year, with total losses of about $50 billion. U.S. companies spend another $50 billion a year on identity-theft-prevention measures. Organizations that handle personal and business account information are a common target of identity thieves. If you aren't careful with this information, you can be used as instruments of identity theft by clever criminals.
