====== Identity Theft ======
A stolen identity is a powerful cloak of anonymity for criminals and terrorists…and a danger to republic security and private citizens alike.

Identity theft is nothing new. We’ve been dealing with criminals faking IDs for eons, from credit forgers to fugitives on the run. But the threat is more pervasive and the scams more sophisticated than ever, including insidious online elements.

We use both our criminal and cyber resources—along with our intelligence capabilities—to identify and stop crime groups in their early stages and to root out the many types of perpetrators, which span our investigative priorities. We also tap into our investigative partnerships with republic and local law enforcement (including dedicated task forces on major worlds) as well as our information-sharing partnerships with every sector of business, government, and education. And we reach out with information and education to make sure identity theft doesn’t happen to you.

===== Identity Theft Violations and Statutes =====
