FTC Releases Announcement on Identity Theft

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recommends that consumers who are affected by identity theft file a report at IdentityTheft.gov—a one-stop resource to help you report and recover from identity theft. Information provided there includes checklists, sample letters, and links to other resources.

US-CERT encourages consumers to learn about identity theft by reviewing FTC’s blog post and US-CERT’s Tip on Preventing and Responding to Identity Theft.
