Identity Theft & Credit Scams

Data Breaches, Synthetic Identity & Credit Fraud

Your identity is the master key to your financial life. Once stolen, it can be used to open accounts, take out loans, and destroy your credit — sometimes for years before you notice. This workshop teaches you how to lock down your identity and recover if it's compromised.
