Tamper Evident Bags: Identity Theft

11/3/2014

0 Comments

 
Identity theft has been on the rise steadily and has become one of the crimes against people that may cause adverse consequences for the victim if they are held responsible for the perpetrators actions. The perpetrator assumes the identity of the victim by pretending to be him/her to gain access to resources or obtain credit and other benefits in that person's name.

It has been reported that identity theft targeting small businesses costs approximately $8 billion annually and it is expected that the problem will get worse as a result of recent security breaches. This means that identity fraudsters now have in their possession new customer data which they can use.

Some of the information obtained by identity thieves about individuals is usually through 'dumpster diving', retrieving personal data from IT equipment and hardware that has been disposed of carelessly and stealing bank/credit cards, ID cards, passports, cheques, etc.

It is therefore extremely important for individuals to protect their sensitive personal information to limit the risk of identity theft. Tamper evident bags can be used to store and transport important documents to prevent personal data access by fraud artists.
