- Gaining access to your data that was lost or stolen from a company you do business with.
- Stealing personal information from your wallet or purse such as identification, credit, or bank cards.
- Masquerading as a trusted company web site to trick you into giving them your personal information -- also known as phishing
- Completing change-of-address forms to redirect your mail.

- Obtaining your credit report by posing as a landlord or someone else who has a lawful right to the information.
- Acquiring personal information you share on sites that lack Internet security.
