Today, on Redhead Mom, we’re talking about protecting your family from identity theft
with Identron as part of a sponsored guest post.

Child identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the US

High school graduation. How quickly time flies by for our children.

Time to head off to college. College Applications as well as student loan applications are mailed in. Good news for your child. They were accepted into the college of their dreams. However, their student loan is declined!  DECLINED!!!! How can this be?

Why would your child not qualify for a college loan?

DECLINED

Unfortunately, sometime over the past 18 years an identity thief was able to get his hands on your child’s social security number and created a synthetic identity.

Creating a synthetic identity is unfortunately very easy to do. In this scenario, an identity thief had created a synthetic identity about 10 years ago and built up their “fake” credit with your child’s social security number and racked up thousands in unpaid debt.

The first thing that needs to be taken care of is to convince the credit card companies (or whoever else the debt is with) that your child is not responsible for the charges that were made with their social security number.

After that is done. The mess needs to be cleaned up with the credit bureaus. Now remember the clock is ticking because the student loan needs to be in place before your child can attend college!

Child identity theft is growing rapidly. ID thieves know that most parents are not checking on their children’s social security numbers before the child needs a loan or credit card when they turn 18. Then I would also strongly suggest that you do some research into cyber crime and find a good cyber crime lawyer like https://www.newjerseycriminallawattorney.com/white-collar-crime/internet-crime/ as cyber crime cases are increasing a huge amount in the USA.

Have peace of mind and get your family protected.
