The Identity Theft Education Center was created in order to inform individuals and businesses about the truth behind the world’
s fastest growing crime identity theft, and to provide them with comprehensive methods of protection. The first thing that
people must come to realize about identity theft is that it is not just a financial crime. Less than 28% of identity fraud cases that
were presented to the FTC during 2006 were financial in nature.
Once consumers begin to adequately understand what identity theft is and what their risks are, they must then realize that when
they become a victim and in what way they are victimized is out of their hands. The determining factor of when and how
someone is victimized is 80 to 90% dependent upon the security practices of the companies that they are either employed by or
do business with. All of this is due to the explosion of data breaches. Over the past 30 months we as a nation thru data
breaches have lost the personal identifiable information on over 235 million Americans. Our lives are forever changed. National
experts in the field of identity theft are predicting that every American will fall victim to this crime in some form or fashion in
the next 20 months.
Due to this epidemic unlike anything else we have ever experienced Congress and the individual states have began passing laws
at a dizzying pace. These new set of laws place absolute liability on business owners and executives within entities with
absolute liability both civilly and criminally. These laws apply to profit and not for profit entities governmental bodies,
associations and individual contractors. These new laws pierce the corporate veil we as a business community have come to
hide behind for so many years. The laws allow for individual as well as class action lawsuits with no statutory limitation at the
same time specifically allowing for responsibility of damages. There is also criminal liability for what is referred to willful non-
compliance.
The Identity Theft Education Center has methods for assisting individuals and businesses with understanding identity theft, the
new federal and state identity theft laws, and helping them to lower their exposure and mitigate their damages. Thank you for
visiting our site. We hope that the information provided throughout these pages will assist you. If we can ever be of any
assistance please do not hesitate to contact my office directly. We can be reached at 404-474-2273. Thank you again for your
time and have a blessed day.
