The New Way to Rob Banks

August26

If Bonnie and Clyde were alive today, they would not be using guns for their heists. Instead, they would probably use stolen identities — the modern method for looting bank accounts, laundering checks and defrauding credit card companies. Drawing on documents from criminal cases, surveillance tapes and immigration records, as well as interviews with law enforcement agents, victims and criminals, CNN Presents goes inside the murky world of identity theft to expose what the bandits do after stealing identities.
Record the CNN Special Investigations Unit Classroom Edition: Identity Theft: How to Rob a Bank when it airs commercial-free on Monday, August 27, 2007 from 4:00– 5:00 a.m. ET on CNN.

I was shocked when I first saw this article. I thought they were teaching kids how to steal! Of course, as I read the article, I discovered that the program is teaching kids what thieves are after, how to protect themselves and other important information. It is going to be a very informative show from which students and adults will learn.
