“Identity Theft: Protect and Prevent” will be presented online on Thurs., Jan. 28, at 3 p.m. by Jeff Kersten from the Wisconsin Bureau of Consumer Protection<\/strong> via Zoom, sponsored by Whitewater’s public library. Registration<\/a> in advance is required in order to receive the program link shortly before the program begins (http:\/\/www.whitewaterlibrary.org\/index.asp<\/a> – scroll to the program listing at the bottom of the page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can get additional information from the Bureau’s website, such as its ID\/Theft\/Privacy Protection Fact Sheets<\/a>. The Federal Trade Commission’s www.identitytheft.gov<\/a> site also provides information, including warning signs<\/a> and recovery plan options. It’s already tax season, and since one thing identity thieves can do with your information is file fraudulent returns, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has a page called “Identity Theft Central<\/a>” that provides information for individuals, tax preparers, and businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

For assistance with finding additional resources, such as articles or books, please ask a librarian<\/a> (visit or contact staff at the Reference Desk, email, chat, or make an appointment).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
