If you are the victim of identify theft you need to take immediate action to minimize liability and further damage. Here’s what to do - and who to contact - if your personal information has been stolen.

If you report an identity theft within two days Visa, Mastercard and some bank-issued credit and ATM cards may limit your liability to $50. If you report within 60 days, your losses may be limited to $500. Don’t wait longer or you may be responsible for your entire loss.
