The Costs of Identity Theft, Cyber Crime
October 23 2007 by The Systemic Analyst.
InformationWeek has reported that “With the help of a Secret Service case review, a Utica College study finds the median actual dollar loss for identity theft victims was $31,356.”

Of course, the total dollar value does not take into account the long-term social and emotional implications for victims.
