Identity theft can be very simply defined as the crime of obtaining personal or financial information of another person with the intention of using their identity in order to commit fraud. The fraudster in such circumstances may use the stolen identity to commit various fraud, such as unauthorized online transactions or purchases or others.

Following precautionary measures should be undertaken, including:
