Help for identity theft victims in Nebraska
More often than not, the terms "identity theft" and "Nebraska" are not used in the same sentence. However, that does not mean that identity theft in Nebraska is not a problem.
The problem of identity theft in Nebraska
Compared with the number of identity theft crimes in other states, Nebraska has relatively few victims. Still, in 2005, Nebraska ranked thirty-seventh in terms of identity theft complaints per 100,000 population. Of those who were victimized, about 19% were robbed more than once!
To put things nicely, that's just not good.
Thankfully, Nebraska doesn't make it easy for identity thieves to get away with their crimes -- as long as identity theft victims stand up for themselves.
