Programs that provide a hotline, website or other mechanisms that people can use to report criminal activity that involves accessing someone's personal information for fraudulent financial gain. One common example of financial identity fraud is someone stealing a person's credit card information to make purchases without their knowledge. However, credit card fraud is just the tip of the iceberg. With enough of an individual's personal information, criminals can successfully apply for new credit cards and loans in their name, drain their checking account, and even get a job in their name to receive a bogus income tax refund — leaving the victim on the hook for their bills until they can prove that it wasn't them.
