Identity theft is not solely a financial crime.
Strong emotions such as fear, anger, helplessness and frustration may also overwhelm a victim. Many victims have no idea how to resolve their situation and to whom to turn for guidance. Promptly and properly notifying credit and law enforcement agencies as well as other relevant institutions can be daunting and exhausting task for anyone trying to resolve the crisis on their own.
