You have been shopping online for years without even thinking about identity theft, but now receiving emails from retailers you never signed up for. You don’t care though because it’s just junk mail that everyone receives but is it? You could end up dead like old George did because you don’t know the signs of identity theft. George got his home broken into and ended up dying from a stab wound.
