The reason why most people are not taking action is because there is a lot of misinfomation out there on the subject. Because most people are only aware of Financial/Credit Identity Theft, they either think if they have bad credit it cannot happen to them or that their bank will take care of it for them and that is simply wrong. That is because ther are four other types of Identity theft that make up the majority of the problem. The other types are:
Driver's License ID Theft
Social Security ID Theft
Medical ID Theft
Character/Criminal ID Theft
It those areas that affect people far worse than Financial/Credit ID theft and those have nothing to do with those 17 digits on that piece of plastic or the numbers your bank knows you by.
