Kansas polling on identity theft
by Editor
SurveyUSA:
- "Identity theft is when a thief takes personal information from someone, such as their social security number, driver's license or credit card information. The thief then uses that information to pose as that person, usually to get credit or make purchases in that other person's name. Have you yourself or someone you know ever been the victim of identity theft?" -- 33% "Yes"/ 65% "No"
- "How often do you check your credit report, bank statement or other financial documents for signs of ID theft? Regularly? Occasionally? Or almost never?" -- 48% "Regularly"
