Report identity theft and get a recovery plan
IdentityTheft.gov can help you report and recover from identity theft.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
Read our Privacy Act statement to learn more about how we collect and use your information.
Get a recovery plan.
We'll use that info to create a personal recovery plan.
Put your plan into action.
If you create an account, we'll walk you through each recovery step, update your plan as needed, track your progress, and pre-fill forms and letters for you.
Scammers are impersonating the FTC and lying to people, saying that someone used their personal information to open accounts or commit fraud. Know that the FTC will never threaten you, say you must transfer your money to “protect it,” or tell you to withdraw cash or buy gold and give it to someone. That’s a scam.
IdentityTheft.govis the federal government’s one-stop resource for identity theft victims. The site provides streamlined checklists and sample letters to guide you through the recovery process.
