Mailboxes get broken into. Personal accounts and business networks get hacked. Even mega-entities like Facebook, Equifax, Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, FDIC and IRS have been breached.

An identity is stolen every 2 seconds.

$904 million in fraud-related losses
Immediate out-of-pocket expense resulting from theft

Crimes committed in the identity theft victim's name

Closing Accounts
Cards must be cancelled. Bank accounts changed. Sometimes drivers' licenses reissued.
Restoring credit scores
With enough diligence, they will eventually be repaired, however this requires a lot of back-and-forth among the creditors and credit bureaus. It is frustrating and time consuming - not how anyone wants to spend their time.
Ongoing issues
These often include fielding debt collection calls, thieves opening new accounts, and being denied loans or credit cards.
