Map of medical identity theft reveals geographic patterns
The World Privacy Forum has published an interactive map of medical identity theft occurrences in the United States, based on complaints to the Federal Trade Commission.
The data is based on 14 months of FTC data, and reveals fresh insights about the crime's patterns and geography including a clustering of medical identity theft in Florida, California (especially southern California), New York, Arizona, and Texas.
It's the first map of its kind.
