The pandemic saw identity theft double in 2020 to over 1.4 million reports. Cybercriminals targeted those impacted by the pandemic, filing fraudulent unemployment claims and misusing personal information. (source)
In 2022, identity fraud losses in the US were estimated at $43 billion. Beyond direct financial losses, victims face significant expenses to restore their identity and credit. (source)
