[Video] IDENTITY THEFT: Protecting Your Personal and Financial Information
Identity theft occurs when someone obtains another person’s sensitive information and uses it to access accounts, commit fraud, or impersonate them. Criminals may target both digital information and physical documents, including checks, financial records, account credentials, mail, and identity-verification codes.
In this short cybersecurity awareness video, employees will learn how identity thieves collect and misuse personal and financial information—and why seemingly ordinary information can become valuable in the wrong hands.
The video examines common identity-theft risks, including stolen mail and checks, exposed documents, compromised account information, and requests for one-time verification codes. It also emphasizes the importance of handling sensitive records securely and regularly reviewing financial activity for transactions or changes that cannot be explained.
Employees will learn:
How criminals obtain and misuse personal and financial information
Why employees should regularly review bank, credit card, and other financial statements
How to verify account alerts and other suspicious claims safely
What to do instead of clicking, replying, or sharing sensitive information
Use this video as part of a cybersecurity awareness campaign, employee newsletter, phishing-prevention initiative, onboarding program, fraud-awareness campaign, or ongoing security training program.
