and character identity theft can result in the victim's arrest. This workshop
reviews the many types of consumer identity theft and the consequences to
consumers. A major emphasis of the workshop is to educate participants about
how consumers can deter and detect identity theft, and what they can do if they
become a victim. This workshop is tailored for consumers and professionals who
