Your online identity—your email accounts, social media profiles, financial logins, and personal information—is a prime target for criminals.
What Is Online Identity Theft?
Online identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information to impersonate you, access your accounts, or commit fraud in your name.
Social Media Risks
Oversharing on social media can give criminals the information they need to impersonate you or answer your security questions.
Protecting Your Accounts
Use unique passwords, enable two-factor authentication, and regularly review your account activity and privacy settings.
Impersonation and Catfishing
If someone is impersonating you online, report it to the platform immediately and document everything. In some cases, impersonation may be a criminal offense.
