Yes it will continue. It is happening more and more because more people are becoming comfortable with the internet and are getting more relaxed with internet shopping and putting there info on line. We had an issue in Illinois where a teller at the bank was taking people’s information. Just because there are secure sites does not mean all the people who work there are totally honest. Also no site is totally hacker proof. It is a shame.

It will absolutely boom! It is a global problem and some of these are criminal organizations that are run like the mafia where the big fish are virtually untouchable.

Unfortunately most people don’t believe it can happen to them when in fact their computers may already be part of some criminal hackers bot net army.

I work with an organization that is putting together a “Cyberhood Watch” program in order to inform the private sector about this growing problem and things one can do to protect themselves and their friends and family. We are finding that the biggest problem we face is consumer denial. It sure makes a cyber criminals life easy…

Crime always goes up with bad economy. People that would normally never commit a crime feel the need to to this to feed and house there family. As we get further into the recession it will get worse. However you will find that the greed of bankers and law makers will keep there jobs and will continue to get richer. So they have no real motivation to stop or help the people on the down hill fight.
You are going to find that this so called stimulus package they are going to pass is going to do nothing but add more debt to us, most of it is really just pet pork projects, and pay to play. we are not going to see anything go to help us for 3 to 5 years and CRIME is going to get so bad that we will need a gun to buy a loaf of bread if you want to get home with it.

Crime always goes up when the economy is bad and unemployment is high.

because the economy is so bad right now and all we can do do is hope obama gets it straightened out pray to god i should say

Identity theft is really bad and getting worse. All of our personal information is stored on computers all over the world. Identity theft protection is just as important to have these days as automobile insurance or homeowners insurance. I have protection with Solus ID. If anyone in my family ever becomes a victim of identity theft they do all the restoration work for us.

it’s because people are absent minded these days people are leaving their information every where today and nobody is shredding their stuff. they just throw it in the trash where anybody can read your Information

Because many people are purchasing things online and paying bills online.

I go the old fashioned way use a money order to pay my bills that way they cant get my info and I burn our personal stuff.

I dont put any of it in the garbage because they even go as far to steal your trash.

I dont use credit cards
