A comprehensive examination of different forms of identity theft
and its economic impact, including profiles of perpetrators and
victims and coverage of current trends, security implications,
prevention efforts, and legislative actions. What are the common
forms of identity theft? Who are the most likely targets? What is
law enforcement doing to counter a crime perpetrated not only by
petty thieves and sophisticated con artists, but by terrorists,
money-launderers, and those involved in human trafficking, drug
trafficking, and illegal immigration? Identity Theft: A Reference
Handbook examines these questions and more. With the 1998 Identity
Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act as its starting point, this
informative volume begins by explaining the federal, state, and
global definitions of identity theft and how the lack of a
standardized approach masks the true pervasiveness of the problem.
In addition to addressing the crime's perpetrators, methods, and
victims, the book also looks at what individuals, businesses, and
the government are doing—and should consider doing—to curb the
growth of this crime.
