The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACT Act) defines "identity theft" broadly as “a fraud committed or attempted using the identifying information of another person without authority.” It is a pernicious crime that can threaten the confidence we share in our open and robust financial system if we don’t take action. Government, industry and consumers all have a role to play in combating identity theft.
