Fair Credit Reporting Act: Fake ID supplier charged with identity theft
www.fcralawyer.blogspot.com
A blog explaining the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
Welcome to FCRA Lawyer blog!
Your good name is one of the most valuable things you possess. Yet, according to a study conducted by the United States Public Interest Research Group, more than 79 percent of credit reports from the national credit bureaus (Experian®, TransUnion®, and Equifax®) contain either serious errors or mistakes of some kind. These errors can have a serious impact on a person’s life, as credit reports are used for everything from granting credit and setting interest rates to obtaining insurance and employment.
Fake ID supplier charged with identity theft
Not sure if this is truly "identity theft" but a fake ID provider was charged with identity theft that resulted in a death of a California teen. Here's what CBS 5 reported on this alleged crime:
"Orinda police arrested a 22-year-old Rohnert Park man Thursday morning for allegedly furnishing fake driver's licenses, the third person arrested as part of an investigation into the death of a 16-year-old boy in May, Orinda police Chief Bill French said Friday.
Robert Martin Scott was arrested at about 8:30 a.m. Thursday at his apartment in the 300 block of Enterprise Drive in Rohnert Park, according to French. The arrest came as part of the Orinda Police Department's investigation into the death of Joseph Loudon, who was found intoxicated and unresponsive at a party in Orinda on May 26.
French said that during the investigation, it was discovered that several students at Miramonte High School, which Loudon attended, were in possession of fake ID cards. Investigators were led to Scott as the person who provided the teenagers with the forged driver's licenses, and about 100 fake licenses were discovered at Scott's home when he was arrested, French said.
Scott was booked into the Martinez Detention Facility for forgery and identity theft, both felonies, according to French."

Why the FCRA?
This blog is dedicated to explaining the ins and outs of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.) is the federal legislation that regulates the credit reporting industry, including the national credit bureaus Equifax®, Experian®, and TransUnion®. The Fair Credit Reporting Act, or “FCRA,” was enacted to protect consumers from the damage that errors in their credit reports could cause.

Just because I am an attorney, that doesn't make me YOUR attorney. So reading this blog, posting to this blog or conversing with me via this blog does not create any kind of attorney client relationship between me and you or my law firm and you. In other words, unless there is a contract signed by me and you memorializing my representation of you, you are NOT my client. Thanks for understanding.
