The top US fraud hotspot

Believe it or not there are some places that are more prone to fraud and identity theft than others, this is particularly true when it comes to the US, and they have places that would scare even the safest surfer or the most diligent of any paper work shredder.

The worst places for ID theft and fraud:

Napa, Calif.
Greeley, Colo.
Dunn, N.C.
Albany-Lebanon, Ore.
Thomasville-Edison, N.C.
Gainesville, Ga.
Punta Gorda, Fla.
Prescott, Ariz.
Monroe, Mich.
Madera, Calif.

The problem with the states is the various laws that exist between the different states themselves and so this makes for a clever fraudster who only has to find ways of moving around the laws to easily find a way to exploit them and in the process ruin some body’s life in the process.
