Utah Children Victims Of Social Security Number ID Theft (2007)

In 2007, Workforce Services estimated that 20,000 Utahns had compromised Social Security numbers (identity theft). The figure is limited to Workforce Services data alone which indicates that a much larger number of Utahns (that is, the general population) are victims of identity theft.

The report also notes that one of the biggest generators for demand of stolen or fraudulent identities are illegal immigrants.
