#AceNewsReport – Feb.06: The first step in avoiding identity theft, or stopping the damage, is placing a fraud alert on your credit report.
#AceSecurityDesk says that FTC has created IdentityTheft.gov, a one-stop resource for people to report identity theft to law enforcement and to get step-by-step instructions on how to recover from any type of identity theft: Consumer Education Specialist: February 4, 2022: By Bridget Small

This makes it harder for a thief to open new credit in your name, and lets you get free copies of your credit report from each of the three credit bureaus. Next, read through your reports and note any accounts or transactions that don’t belong. Then, go to IdentityTheft.gov.
When you report at IdentityTheft.gov, you’ll answer questions and give details about what happened. Include information about any problems you spotted on your credit reports.
IdentityTheft.gov will use that information to create your personalized:
- Identity Theft Report, which shows that someone stole your identity, and
- recovery plan with step-by-step advice to help you fix problems.
Your Identity Theft Report, recovery plan, and sample letters from IdentityTheft.gov will help you repair problems caused by identity theft. Your recovery plan may tell you to:
- close new accounts opened in your name
- remove charges made on your existing accounts
- contact the three credit bureaus to correct your credit report
- consider an extended fraud alert or credit freeze
- check your credit reports regularly. Through April 2022, you can check your reports every week for free at AnnualCreditReport.com.
