“Identity Theft" refers to crimes in which someone wrongfully obtains and uses another person's personal data, and your financial identity in some way that involves fraud or deception, typically for economic gain. Criminals also use Identity Theft to fraudulently obtain identification cards, driver’s licenses, birth certificates, social security numbers, travel visas, and other official government papers.
