Did you know that, according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), more than a million people reported identity theft to the FTC last year? Identity theft continues to affect individuals and families across the country—and awareness is one of the strongest tools we have to fight it.
January 26–30, 2026, is Identity Theft Awareness Week, a nationwide effort to help people recognize, avoid, and recover from identity theft. Throughout the week, you can learn how to protect your personal information, spot the latest scams, and stay one step ahead of fraudsters.
The FTC is offering free events and resources to help you safeguard your identity and respond quickly if something goes wrong.
