Identity Theft… Are You Protected?


By 2010, 1 in every 10 U.S. consumers has already been victimized by identity theft.



”The odds have never been higher for becoming a fraud victim,” said James Van Dyke, Javelin Strategy president and founder. “It’s an easy crime to perpetrate, a crime that’s almost impossible to catch when done in a sophisticated manner and a crime in which enforcement is very limited.”



The new social media craze has opened up a new debate on a very old internet problem. Online Identity Privacy. The truth is that identity thieves are very resourceful without even having to use the internet. A simple mailbox can often be their portal to invade and conquer your privacy. But these days, social media sites like Facebook make it all too easy for strangers to find your personal information and use it for their own advantage. Facebook’s recent privacy problems have led many to question the privacy policies on all social media sites. There is no doubt that social media is the best way to communicate, to find clients, to market your company, etc. But all of this comes at a high cost if you are not careful (read: obsessed) with your own identity protection.
