Identity Theft Facts & Reports

WHAT IS A SECURITY BREACH?
A Security Breach occurs when an intruder gains unauthorized access to the protected data of an organization. This breach can be damaging to the organization’s reputation and finances and can also have a lasting, harmful effect on users.
Banking and credit card companies continue to be most affected by data breaches with 68% of all records exposed so far in 2019.
August, 2019 DATA Breach Report, Identity Theft Resource Center -
WHAT IS A RISK?
Security Breaches give thieves access to sensitive user information such as personal addresses, credit card numbers, social security numbers, phone numbers, passport numbers, and birthdates. This confidential information is often sold on the dark web and can be used for identity theft and credit card fraud. Among the top breaches of 2018, several were of reputable companies such as Marriott, British Airways, Google+, Facebook, MyFitnessPal, and Twitter.
In 2018, the number of breaches fell 23% from 2017 to 1,244 breaches, but the number of records exposed that contained sensitive personally identifiable information more than doubled to 447 million, a 126% increase. Identity Theft Resource Center, 2019
Hospitality company Marriott International had the highest number of reported records exposed in 2018, impacting 383 million people worldwide. The breach exposed information such as passport details, payment card information and date of birth. End-of-Year Data Breach Report, 2018 Identity Theft Resource Center

WHO IS AT RISK?
A sign of the digital age, the number of reported cases of fraud, including the use of stolen information to initiate online transactions, has increased dramatically in recent years. Among those at risk are children, whose social security numbers are typically not yet attached to credit or loans. Thieves will use children’s social security numbers to open bank and credit card accounts or apply for loans or benefits. Other targets include those who already have existing accounts. Thieves can break in to these accounts using stolen information and make unauthorized transactions.
So far in 2019, there have been 11,651 identity theft victims 19-years-old or younger. Most of those cases were employment or tax-related fraud. Federal Trade Commission, FTC Consumer Sentinel Network, 2019
Reports identify losses from New Account Fraud (NAF) as reaching $3.4 billion in 2018, a 13% increase from 2017. Javelin Strategy & Research, 2019
Mobile phone account takeovers rose to 679K in 2018 from 380K in 2017. Javelin Strategy & Research, 2019

HOW CAN I TAKE CONTROL?
While security breaches cause large amounts of consumer data to become vulnerable, it’s not the only way thieves can gain access to consumer data. Personal information can also be accessible by lost or stolen wallets and bank cards, misplacement of documents containing social security numbers, online shopping, card skimmers, or other exposure of personal records at the home or office. If this information is used to commit fraud, it can generate a lifetime of debt and credit damage. It is important to take the extra measures to protect yourself and your family. Daily preventative habits can help reduce the risk of identity theft.
Of the 1.4 million fraud reports, 25% indicated money was lost. In 2018, people reported losing nearly $1.48 billion to fraud. Consumer Sentinel Network Data Book, 2018 Federal Trade Commission
Online shopping presents the greatest fraud risk as victims are 81% more likely to have credit card information stolen online than at a physical point-of-sale. Identity Fraud Report, 2018 Javelin Strategy & Research
DAILY PREVENTIONS AGAINST IDENTITY THEFT
-
PROTECT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERAvoid giving out your Social Security number (SSN) unless it is
necessary – such as to a government organization or when obtaining
a new job – and always ask why providing your social security number is required.
Keep your Social Security card in a locked box at home, don't carry it in your wallet. -
BE WARY OF PHISHINGIf someone posing as a bank, store or other enterprise asks you to provide or verify sensitive information such as account numbers or passwords, be wary.
Legitimate companies do not request this type of information through solicitations. If you receive such a request, contact (or visit if possible) the bank, company or website directly and verify why the information is required.
Do not directly reply to an email, phone call or letter requesting sensitive data." -
SHRED EVERYTHING CONTAINING YOUR IDENTITYUse a micro-cut, cross-cut or “confetti” shredder to dispose of bank statements, credit card bills, convenience checks, old credit cards, and other items containing personal information.
Scammers use these items to open new accounts in your name or to make unauthorized transactions on your existing accounts. -
GUARD ALL YOUR CREDIT CARDSBe sure to shred any “pre-approved” card offers before disposing of them and void all carbon copy receipts. Do not give out your credit card number over the phone unless you initiated the transaction and know it is with a reputable company.
When paying at a cash register, be sure to keep your card in view at all times. -
MANAGE MAIL CAREFULLYBe sure to collect your mail as soon as possible. If you are not able to pick up your mail for an extended period, have a neighbor collect it for you or request that the post office hold it until you can pick it up.
Avoid placing bill payments in your personal mailbox. Shred all “pre-approved” credit card offers and other mail that may contain personal information. -
DESTROY OLD HARD DRIVESHome computers or laptops often contain sensitive information such as social security numbers, credit card numbers, and passwords.
Traces of this information can remain on the hard drive even after it’s been “deleted”. When disposing of an old computer, be sure to wipe clean the hard drive first.
Data-wiping programs are available to help properly dispose of information. The other option is to completely destroy the hard drive by cutting, sawing or magnetizing it. -
PASSWORDS & SAFE WEB BROWSINGCreate passwords of at least 8 characters that include a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters and try not to have the same password for all online accounts.
Password Management programs are available to help keep track.
Protect your computer by utilizing trustworthy antivirus software and spyware removal programs, such as Norton™ Security Online.
Be sure to avoid opening emails or files – or click on hyperlinks – that come from unknown sources. -
USE THIRD PARTY MONITORING SYSTEMSThird Party Monitoring Systems (TPM) such as ID WORLDWIDE offer online “listening” tools and preventative measures that cannot be achieved individually.
For an affordable rate, these systems will scan the internet for your personal information and alert you of any discoveries of data located on unauthorized sites or the dark web.

HOW SECURE AND CONFIDENTIAL IS YOUR WEBSITE?
The ID WORLDWIDE website runs on a highly secure web server farm. The advanced SSL connection scrambles or encrypts data on pages where secure information is transmitted, further safeguarding
your information while it passes through cyberspace. We take two important measures to protect your information: 1) customer information is stored on a secure server that is firewall-protected and encrypted to block unauthorized third party access and 2) we restrict
downloading of any data from our secure servers to unsecured locations, such as a laptop.
Our site is also certified and regularly scanned by CyberTrust (www.cybertrust.com) and Trustwave (www.trustwave.com) to protect against hacker attacks for
over 11,500 known website security vulnerabilities. All sensitive information is encrypted prior to storing it in our databases.
CREDIT REPORTS AND SCORES (Deluxe and Premier Customers Only)
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY CREDIT REPORT?
Once you have successfully logged into your account, you will receive your online credit report within seconds of requesting it.
AS AN ID WORLDWIDE MEMBER, DO I NEED TO PAY FOR MY CREDIT REPORT EACH TIME I REQUEST IT?
ID WORLDWIDE members are entitled to receive a new credit report, as specified in their benefits, at no additional charge.
CAN YOU MAKE CORRECTIONS TO MY CREDIT REPORT?
No. Only the appropriate institution can change your records. However, ID WORLDWIDE provides members with toll-free access to Credit Specialists who can help answer questions about your credit report and instruct you on how to complete and submit the dispute form provided by ID WORLDWIDE.
WHERE DO YOU GET THE INFORMATION FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE CREDIT REPORT?
Select plans include a comprehensive credit report provided by VantageScore Solutions, LLC. The VantageScore model, with scores ranging from 300 to 850, was developed jointly by the three major national credit reporting agencies Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®. The version of VantageScore provided is used by some, but not all, lenders. Your score(s) may not be identical or similar to scores received directly from those agencies, from other sources, or from your lender.
WHAT INFORMATION IS INCLUDED IN MY CREDIT REPORT?
Your credit report consists of four main categories of information:
Personal information: Includes your name, current and previous addresses, social security number, telephone number, date of birth, and current and previous employers.
Credit History: The majority of your credit report is comprised of information on credit accounts that were opened in your name. Details about these accounts, including the date the account was opened, the credit limit or amount of the loan, the payment terms, balance and a history of your payment records on each account is also included. Closed or inactive accounts, depending on the manner in which they were paid, stay on your report for 7-11 years from the date of their last activity.
Credit Inquiries: Each time a third party, such as a creditor, potential lender, or insurer pulls your credit report, it is recorded on your file as a credit inquiry. Inquiries remain on your credit report for up to 2 years.
Public Records: Public records obtained from government sources including bankruptcies, tax liens, collections and records of overdue child support are also recorded on your credit report. Public information stays on your credit report for up to 7 years.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I CHECK MY CREDIT REPORT?
You should check your credit report on a regular basis. Your creditworthiness can have a significant impact on your financial future. With good credit, it is easier to take out loans, mortgages and auto leases and you are more likely to receive low-interest credit cards. Even if you do pay all of your bills on time, checking your credit report consistently may alert you of inaccuracies on your credit file, or of signs of potential Identity Theft.
CREDIT MONITORING
WHAT IS CREDIT MONITORING?
ID WORLDWIDE Credit Monitoring continuously examines your accounts for changes made to your credit file including inquiries, derogatory information, accounts opened in your name, or changes to your public records. If certain changes have been detected, you will be sent an alert via email on a daily basis. We’ll also send you an ”all-clear” notification on a monthly basis, if there are no changes to your credit record.
DATA SWEEP
HOW MANY DATABASES CAN ID WORLDWIDE ACCESS?
While it’s impossible to monitor ALL online public databases, ID WORLDWIDE accesses information from an ever-growing list of primary directories, including DexOnline, Directory Assistance Plus, Google Phone Search, Yahoo! Email Search, Yahoo! People Search, 411.com, Whitepages.com, and Addresses.com.
CREDIT CARD MONITORING
EXACTLY WHERE DO YOU MONITOR MY CREDIT CARDS?
We search online databases of hacked cards, chat rooms and blogs for instances of credit cards being sold. We notify you via email if we find one of your monitored cards on the Web.
HOW WILL YOUR SERVICE PROTECT MY CREDIT CARD USE?
ID WORLDWIDE will not freeze your credit card, but we will notify you by email if we find one of your monitored cards compromised on the Web. We scour online databases of hacked cards, chat rooms, and blog sites for instances of credit cards being sold – yours in particular.
ISN’T IT DANGEROUS TO GIVE YOU MY CREDIT CARD? CAN YOU USE IT WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE?
We only ask for the 16 digits – NOT the expiration date OR the security number on the back of the card. Without this information no one can use your card. We are simply monitoring those 16 digits.
CAN MY CREDIT CARD NUMBERS BE COMPROMISED?
Millions of credit card numbers are lost or stolen each year. Many of them are eventually sold or traded for criminal use. There are even websites and chat rooms devoted ONLY to this illegal activity. ID WORLDWIDE provides automated online monitoring of several of your credit card numbers for their presence on the Internet.
DO I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT CREDIT CARD NUMBERS RELATED TO ACCOUNTS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN CLOSED?
No – a closed account is a dead account.
SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER MONITORING
WHAT IS SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER MONITORING?
ID WORLDWIDE scans online databases, chat rooms and blog sites for your Social Security number. Should your Social Security number be found on any of the sites which ID WORLDWIDE is monitoring, you will be alerted via email.
DOES SSN MONITORING TELL ME IF SOMEONE HAS TRIED TO USE MY SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER ILLICITLY?
SSN Monitoring only indicates whether your Social Security number has appeared on one or more monitored websites. It does not identify whether a particular SSN has been bought or sold, or used for illegal purposes. However, if you have the Credit Security feature activated and someone tries to open an account using your SSN, you will be alerted.

4. MISUSE OF "ID WORLDWIDE" OR INFORMATION – "You" agree to protect against the misuse of "ID WORLDWIDE". "You" agree that "ID WORLDWIDE" may, if concerned about your use, temporarily suspend your access for up to ten (10) business days pending an investigation.

The terms of this Section shall survive any termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement.
8. GOVERNING LAW– This Agreement, and the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Virginia. If there is a dispute between "You" and "ID Worldwide", any of such parties may elect to have it resolved by proceeding in small claims court or by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its rules for consumer arbitrations. All disputes in arbitration will be handled just between the named parties, and not on any representative or class basis. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS MEANS THAT YOU MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A COURT OR JURY. The terms of this Section shall survive any termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement.
9. ARBITRATION – "You", on the one hand and "ID Worldwide" and/or CIC and CSID, on the other agree that any claim or dispute (“Claim”) between Us shall, at the election of any one of Us, be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its rules for consumer arbitrations. It is the parties’ intent that this arbitration provision be construed broadly, including that this arbitration agreement include any Claims against "ID Worldwide" or CIC AND CSID as well as their respective corporate affiliates. "You" agree that, by entering into this Agreement, "You", "ID Worldwide" and CIC and CSID are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. At your request, we will pay the first $125 of your arbitration fees. "You" will be solely responsible for your arbitration fees and costs in excess of $125. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual Claim. YOU, ON THE ONE HAND, AND "ID WORLDWIDE" AND/OR CIC AND CSID, ON THE OTHER, AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both "You" and "ID Worldwide" agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s Claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision in the preceding sentence is found to be unenforceable then the entirety of this arbitration provision in Section 9 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”). Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall follow substantive law to the extent consistent with the FAA and shall honor any claims or privileges recognized by law. The terms of this Section 9 shall survive any termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement.

16. VantageScore 3.0 Disclosure – VantageScore 3.0, with scores ranging from 300 to 850, is a user-friendly credit score model developed by the three major nationwide credit reporting agencies, Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®. VantageScore 3.0 is used by some, but not all lenders. Your score(s) may not be identical or similar to scores received directly from those agencies, from other sources, or from your lender.
There are three different major credit reporting agencies, Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax that maintain a record of your credit history known as your credit file. Credit scores are based on the information in your credit file at the time it is requested. Your credit file information can vary from agency to agency because some lenders report your credit history to only one or two of the agencies. So your credit scores can vary if the information they have on file for you is different. Since the information in your file can change over time, your credit scores also may be different from day-to-day. Different credit scoring models can also give a different assessment of the credit risk (risk of default) for the same consumer and same credit file.
There are different credit scoring models which may be used by lenders and insurers. Your lender may not use VantageScore 3.0, so don’t be surprised if your lender gives you a score that’s different from your VantageScore. (And your VantageScore 3.0 may differ from your score under other types of VantageScores). Just remember that your associated risk level is often the same even if the number is not. For some consumers, however, the risk assessment of VantageScore 3.0 could vary, sometimes substantially, from a lender’s score. If the lender’s score is lower than your VantageScore 3.0, it is possible that this difference can lead to higher interest rates and sometimes credit denial.
