One of Top 10 Scams & Rips-Offs in 2010: Identity Theft
January 29, 2011 by Terry.
With as much press as identity theft has had in recent years, you’d think it would be on the BBB’s top 10 list every year. Not so. Identity theft wasn’t in the top 10 last year.
There are any number of ways a person can become a victim of identity theft. Through low-tech theft, phishing emails, vishing phone calls, smishing text messages, or even through no fault of your own as the result of a corporate data breach, millions fall victim to identity theft every year.
