Who Stole my Identity?

In an increasingly interconnected world, personal identity has become one of the most valuable and, at the same time, vulnerable assets. The book "Who Stole My Identity?" demonstrates with a real case that occurred 20 years ago that this topic is still relevant and that, with technological advances, the complexities of identity theft have multiplied. This crime not only threatens our financial security, but also our personal integrity.

The first edition published in Spanish: Qui?n se ha robado mi identidad? Ten years ago, when Facebook was beginning to change the way it interacts with social networks, was a success.

Every day we witness many cases of identity theft, we see and read about it in the media and social networks, which is why after all these years, especially after the pandemic in 2020, my editor and friend Gladys Montes has encouraged me to republish the work and update the alarming data on the subject.

This book not only describes with real facts how criminals can appropriate our identity, but also provides information to protect us against this growing danger. As we delve into this reading, we will not only discover a shocking true story, but it also invites you to reflect on how to prevent and combat this crime in our daily lives.

Millions of users are victims of identity theft every year. With the accelerated shift to digital banking, many more are likely to experience some form of identity theft soon, if they haven't already.

Identity theft in the digital world today is very different than it was a decade ago. In the past, consumers knew they were victims if a creditor called them asking, for example, about a bad check. But now, with the rise in data breaches exposing sensitive personal information and the use of synthetic identities, consumers need to be more proactive to avoid being the next victims.

With the shift in consumer habits post-pandemic, it's essential for everyone to understand how to stay safe from scammers who take advantage of a stolen identity to commit scams, fraud, and theft.

"Who Stole My Identity?" is essential reading to understand the importance of protecting our identity in an ever-evolving digital world.

I hope that this reading is useful and that you share it with your loved ones and friends.

Remember, it is in your hands to protect yourself. Any foresight is little.
