  2    RELATING TO FALSE PRETENSES AND MISREPRESENTATIONS; AMENDING SECTION  18-3126,

Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                     STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                               
                           RS 17700
  
  The purpose of this legislation is to clarify the current
  Misappropriation of Personal Identifying Information criminal
  statute.  The current law prohibits an offender from obtaining
  or recording, without authority, another person's social
  security number or date of birth with the intent to use that
  information in order to obtain credit, money, goods or
  services in the name of the other person.  
  However, in many instances of identity theft an offender
  utilizes a stolen social security number or date of birth and
  their own name or a fictitious name in obtaining credit,
  money, goods or services.
  This legislation clarifies the law and will ensure that
  law enforcement and prosecutors are better able to hold
  identity thieves accountable under these circumstances.
