seconds. Experts say one out of eight Americans has been a victim in the past
five years. Those stung by an identity thief usually get tangled up in trying to
clear their name. Individual victims can spend up to 60 hours trying to undo the
damage, according to Your Credit Card Companies, an ad hoc group of some of the
largest credit card issuers. We provide information and recommended steps to take to protect themselves from identity theft and what steps to take if they become victims of identity theft.
