Two of Five know the source of the crime!
According to this article on Government Technology, two out of five identity theft victims know how their personal data was stolen according to a survey by the Identity Theft Assistance Center.
The survey was of just 275 victims so the sample is pretty small considering some quote there are as many as 1,000,000 victims of identity theft yearly. Still by knowing where the thefts are occuring, better understanding of how we all can protect ourselves can be developed.
