Identity theft has become a major and common type of fraudulent crime worldwide. Whether it involves forging documents or stealing personal information, identity theft is not limited by borders and it affects people of all walks of life. In this episode of Scammed, we meet Detectives Glass and Staab as they each guide us through two separate, fascinating identity theft cases. In the first half, Officer Glass shares with us a crime of forgery, through which we even meet the criminal - Rachel Ross. In the second half, Officer Staab takes us through a case in which a criminal assumed the identity of a victim in order to open accounts and take out loans in the victim's name. Officer Staab and the victim, Bogdan Vovk, retell this tale of stolen and assumed identity theft.
