| Abstract: |
The information provided in this document is intended to educate prosecutors and financial institution professionals about each other’s needs and experiences so that they can work together more effectively; however, it is important to note that those needs and experiences regarding identity theft will change. To continue effectively preventing, investigating, and prosecuting identity theft, prosecutors and financial institutions must continue to work together sharing information about the methods perpetrators use, ways to help victims, and promising practices that make their work easier and more effective. American Prosecutors Research Institute (APRI) encourages financial institution professionals and prosecutors to continue sharing information with each other, as well as with national organizations like APRI and the Bureau of Justice Assistance so that information can be disseminated nationally. Developing and sharing emerging methods of identity theft; uses of information; prevention, detection, investigation, and prosecution strategies; new task forces, associations, and working groups; and any other relevant information will strengthen the overall ability of prosecutions and financial institutions to successfully combat identity theft.
