This tuition-free training (presented in partnership with Multi-jurisdictional Counterdrug Task Force Training) will acquaint you with criminal activity occurring at the street level and how it relates to the crime of identify theft and its link to drug trafficking. Millions of Americans each year suffer the financial and emotional trauma of identity theft. This crime takes many forms, but it invariably leaves victims with the task of repairing the damage to their lives. It is a problem with no single cause and no single solution. The problem of identity theft has become more complex and challenging for the general public, the government, and the private sector. And, at every level of government - from the largest cities with major police departments to the smallest towns with one fraud detective - identity theft has placed increasingly pressing demands on law enforcement. At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to: understand the definition of identity theft and the impact on the individual victim, the community, and law enforcement; identify key federal laws to further the prosecution of identity theft; identify crimes associated with identity theft; understand some of the different methods employed by criminals to commit identity theft; understand the role that identity theft plays in drug trafficking; describe the fundamental steps for working identity theft cases; and understand how to protect your-self and the community you serve.
