--REPORTER PKG-AS FOLLOWS-- OOPS. HE'LL DO IT AGAIN. "I wish ralph nader wasn't running." MUCH TO THE ANGST OF DEMOCRATS, RALPH IS RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT, AS AN INDEPENDENT. "MONUMENTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE." FUMED THE DEFENDERS OF WILDLIFE ACTION FUND. "FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS HELP BUSH," SAID THE PROGRESSIVES UNITED AGAINST BUSH. . ETCETERA. "He has no movement he has no support. He wants to be a spoiler." VISIONS OF FLORIDA, AND OTHER SQUEAKER STATES POUND THRU THEIR HEADS. 2000 COULD'VE BEEN SO DIFFERENT, DEMOCRATS ARGUE, IF ONLY NADER, THEN A GREEN PARTY CANDIDATE, HAD NOT SIPHONED OFF VOTES THAT OTHERWISE MIGHT HAVE BEEN GORE'S. NADER REJECTS THE ROLE THEN AND NOW. "A spoiler is a contemptuous term: As if any one who dares challenge the two party system and corrupt politics and broken politics is a spoiler? Come again?" SURELY IT WILL BE MORE DIFFICULT FOR NADER THIS TIME AROUND. WITHOUT THE GREEN PARTY AS HOME BASE,, HE MAY HAVE MONEY TROUBLES. WITH THE PAST AS PROLOGUE, HE MAY HAVE VOTER TROUBLES: "You know, hopefully democrats will have learned their lesson and this will now make ralph nader completely obsolete." STILL, HE COULD BE A FORCE.NOTE THE THE KID GLOVE TREATMENT FROM THE MAINSTREAM CAMPAIGN TRAIL. "It's for Ralph Nader to decide for himself what he should do. "I'm going to appeal to everybody in this race and will make it unecessary in the end for an alternative." IN A RACE EXPECTED WHCH WILL BE TOUGH AND MAY BE TIGHT.NO SENSE RILING UP ANYBODY'S VOTERS IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO. CANDY CROWLEY, CNN, WASHINGTON. ---END-----CNN.SCRIPT |

Identity Theft has become America's fastest growing crime. According to the Federal Trade Commission there were more than 279-thousand victims last year alone. It can happen to anyone.

| Identity Theft Return to index of stories... |
Telling the story of Identity Theft through this film -- is part of a new intiative by the Postal Inspection Service, as well as its partners in law enforcement and the financial industry. It shows just how easy it is to steal your name and credit -- without you even knowing it. ==================== =================== Most of the time people don't find out they're a theft victim until 12 months after the fact. They'll spend months clearing their name and a lot of their own money to clear their name --so, its an important victim tissue. The Elderly are often victimized. That's especially devastating since they may not have the opportunity to recoup their losses the way a younger person would have. =================== How do you safeguard against identity theft: 1 Don't leave mail in your mailbox overnight or on weekends 2 Deposit mail in U.S. Postal Service Collection Boxes 3 Tear up unwanted documents that contain personal information 4 Review your consumer credit report annually 5 Do not give out your social security number 6 Know who is on the phone before giving out any personal information 7 Safeguard your pin number at ATMs 8 Never leave receipts behind ===================== The film is also aimed at educating corporations. It's not just MAIL that's vulnerable. Businesses large and small need to know how to protect personal information in their custody. Self-audits will help determine how such information comes into an organization and who has access. ============ =================== we also urge businesses to set up info compromised response plan. Any business can be compromised how to notify customers.and tell them about losses and how do you limit the risk to an organization. |

Begin with Nikky - Nat sound at the computer --- Nikky Raney - Shot of her hands typing, pans up to her face. Shot of her face pans back to her hands. We got our computer when I was eight years old and then my dad kind of taught me how to do it and we have classes at school that kind of teach us how to use the Internet. And then I learned from my friends. From behind shot of her head in foreground and computer screen in background. Tilts down to keyboard in background. Nikky Raney is twelve years old and already proficient in using the Internet. She is not alone as 65% of children her age are also online. Jim McLaughlin - "Well, for a young person the Internet is very attractive because your peers are using it. - Tilt up from gun. But, as Detective Jim McLaughlin knows, the Internet poses dangers that make protecting children a challenge. Just one wrong click of a mouse |
