In the Philippines there have been many reports of identity theft against individuals or companies. But because there are no specific agencies that could do tracking, victims often end up pursuing the long process of resetting their passwords in their PCs, bank accounts, and other areas where they have stored personal data, often daunting tasks. As such, data on how many victims there are or how much has been lost to identity theft remains elusive.
A number of methods can be employed to reduce the chances of ever becoming victims against identity thieves. Most of these methods are common sense but as criminals use ever more sophisticated processes, it becomes apparent that ordinary computer users must also utilize other means of protecting against them.
