Resolution Assistance
Identity Theft Resolution Assistance is the
component of an identity theft program that provides assistance
to the individual after an identify theft has taken place.
The real need for resolution assistance is
compounded by the difficulty the victim has in knowing the
proper steps to take, the address to which information must
be sent, the phone numbers to call and the inability to
actual get someone from a financial institution or credit
bureau on the phone.
The quality of the resolution assistance service
is the heart of the identity theft program.
After the individual contacts the resolution
team a series of events takes place to begin the process
of restoration. Those steps include:
In most situations the resolution team works closely with
the victim for as long as it takes to complete the process.
While much of the activity takes place initially, most resolution
organizations are equipped to for a year long process if required.
