Credit Fraud-Children
In this July 22, 2010 photo, Asst. U.S. Attorney Linda Marshall, left, and FBI agent Julia Jensen walk out of the federal court house in Kansas City, Mo. The latest form of identity theft doesn't depend on stealing your Social Security number. Now thieves are targeting your kid's number long before the little one even has a bank account. Hundreds of online businesses are using computers to find dormant Social Security numbers _ usually those assigned to children who don't use them _ then selling those numbers under another name to help people establish phony credit and run up huge debts they will never pay off.
