It happens when a criminal gets enough of your personal information to successfully impersonate your identity over the phone, on the Internet, or in person.

With this book, you’ll learn who the criminals are, the methods they use, and the damage they can inflict. You’ll also learn the best ways to protect yourself, how to tell if you’ve been victimized, and what to do if it happens to you.
