What do you like about this subject? Identity Theft is a growing problem that requires education and straight answers for consumers and businesses alike in order to help respond to this threat. I like being able to share my own experience and research to help them.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? My daily reading includes current updates on identity theft developments. I hope to continue to share my knowledge with others.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: In many jurisdictions, nearly half of the reported cases of identity theft do not show up in the victim's credit report.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject You may be a victim of identity theft and not even find out for 6 to 18 months. When you do find you're a victim, it may be too late to contain the damage.
