Though online fraud is a continual threat for Salt Lake City credit union bankers, identity theft is more often committed offline.

A recent Javelin Identity Fraud Survey Report contains some surprising facts about identity theft:

The most frequently reported source of information used to commit fraud is a lost/stolen wallet or checkbook.

Among cases where the perpetrator’s identity is known, half of all identity fraud is committed by a friend, family member, relative, neighbor or in-home employee.

The majority of identity fraud crimes are self-detected.

It is important to review your West Valley City bank or credit union account activity on a regular basis. Obtaining and reading your credit report can also alert you to problems. Ironically, there are a multitude of credit report scams, so be sure to see http://www.beehivecredit.com for instructions on safely ordering a free credit report from an agency approved by the Federal Trade Commission.
