Identity theft occurs when a criminal uses another person's personal information to take on that person's identity. Identity theft is much more than misuse of a Social Security number-it can also include credit card and mail fraud.

SO tell me what is the best punishment...for these criminals...

I think that the best punishment would be jail time for life. It is wrong and cruel to steal someone's identity and letting the other person pay for all the charges that phony person charged.Also, that phony has to repay the loss of money that identity was stolen. Luckily, I now leave all my credit cards at home and my social security card too.

I think the punishment should depend upon the impact of the crime and the location. It depends on what damage such a thing caused.

I had never thought about jail time before, but in my case, there was a wallet stolen with my SSN card in it - and theft IS something to be thrown in jail for. So yes, jail time and an extremely heft fine for the victims. And I also think that law enforcement should be required to actually do something about it when someone is a clear victim.
