US cracks 'biggest ID fraud case'

Identity theft costs the US billions of dollars every year
The US authorities have charged 11 people in connection with the theft of credit-card details in the country's largest-ever identity theft case.


They are accused of stealing more than 40m credit and debit card numbers before selling the information.

My bro told me about this. It must have been bad for the banks and the credit card companys.

It's a really bad feeling when someone uses your name etc to get money which isn't theirs.

They don't really care about the affect it can have on your life.
