What is Identity Theft?
Identity theft is a crime that can leave you feeling vulnerable, but remember, you have the power to fight back. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) empowers you, the consumer, to take a stand against identity theft. And that’s exactly what we’ll do together at McCarty Law Firm, empowering you to reclaim your financial security.
Identity thieves can steal your personal information in both simple and sophisticated ways. Low-tech methods include stealing your mail, wallet, purse, or even digging through your trash. High-tech criminals might resort to buying your information from the “dark web,” phishing scams, where they impersonate legitimate businesses in emails to trick you into giving up your information. Another method is “pretexting,” where the thief pretends to be someone you trust, like a creditor or government agency, to obtain your details under false pretenses. Contact us now to take the first step toward reclaiming your financial security.

How Do Identity Thieves Steal Your Identity?
Identity thieves can steal your personal information in a variety of ways, both simple and sophisticated. Low-tech methods include stealing your mail, wallet, purse, or even digging through your trash. High-tech criminals might resort to phishing scams, where they impersonate legitimate businesses in emails to trick you into giving up your information. Another method is “pretexting,” where the thief pretends to be someone you trust, like a creditor or government agency, to obtain your personal details under false pretenses.
Be aware that identity theft can even come from within your family. It’s surprisingly common for siblings, soon-to-be-ex spouses, or even parents to steal a family member’s identity. This is sometimes called “friendly fraud,” but the consequences are far from friendly. Family members often have easier access to your personal and financial information, making them potential targets. However, catching a family member can be difficult, as victims may be hesitant to press charges.
Credit Reporting Errors
You have the right to an accurate credit report. Our experience has shown that credit reporting agencies and lenders can be disorganized and inaccurate when handling and reporting your credit information. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) gives you, as a consumer, the power to challenge these inaccuracies––that is precisely what we will do together.
Inaccurate credit reports can lead to significant hardships, each affecting individuals in unique ways. At our firm, we understand the personal impact these errors can cause, and we are dedicated to holding credit reporting bureaus and lenders accountable for their negligence. If you suspect inaccuracies in your credit report, contact us immediately. You will not incur any fees or costs unless we secure a settlement or win your case at trial.
Are Credit Reporting Errors Very Common?
Spotting errors on your credit report? Don’t ignore them! Credit Reporting Bureaus and Credit Lenders are messy, making mistakes and errors are commonplace and it has been my experience that they don’t care. They rarely correct errors even after disputing the problem. Sometimes it takes a lawsuit to make them do the right thing.
