Has My Identity Been Compromised?
Survivors of trafficking often have little to no control over their personal information and/or financial accounts while experiencing trafficking. If personal identifiers (Social Security number, driver’s license, student ID, etc.) or account/user credentials (account number, username/password, etc.) have been compromised, there is a greater risk of an identity crime.
