In the world of digital convenience, where all it takes is a user name and password to do almost any business transaction from a laptop or home computer, never has it been easier for identity thieves to wreak havoc on unsuspecting victims. Young people and teenagers are especially vulnerable as they tend to have no credit history, making them even more appealing as targets. This book defines identity theft and gives practical, helpful information on how to protect yourself, what to do if your identity has been stolen, and how to reestablish your identity after being a victim.
