Identity Theft on the Rise During COVID-19 Pandemic according to IDentityUSA

ARLINGTON, Texas - EntSun -- Just last year, more than 167,000 people reported that a fraudulent credit card account was opened with their information. According to the FTC, the most common categories for fraud complaints were imposter scams, debt collection, and identity theft.

Unfortunately, credit cards are just the tip of the iceberg.

Imagine waking up one day and finding out that there is a house 2,000 miles away, in your name, being foreclosed. Or getting a call from a debt collector in the next state badgering you to repay a $50,000 loan that you never took out. It happens every single day. And experts are seeing a bump because of the pandemic.

It's estimated that only about 5 million people in the USA have any type of identity theft protection. Many credit cards do offer some protection, but only if it was involving their card. They might be able to claw back some of the money on fraudulent charges, but they won't protect your name, your house, or your credit score. All the experts agree you need to protect yourself and your credit card company's coverage is not enough.
