While the number of reported identity theft cases to the Federal Trade Commission continue to climb, law enforcement officials struggle to solve cases left in the wake of criminals taking over identities and racking up mountains of debt, ruining credit and financially tarnishing good names. A unique partnership between the FBI Law Enforcement Executive Development Association (FBI-LEEDA), a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation, and LifeLock® aims to bring law enforcement together to educate and share information on identity theft trends.
LifeLock will use this information, and serve as the voice of the industry to educate and empower consumers. LifeLock® and the FBI-LEEDA present one day summits on identify theft. Identity theft investigations can be complex and challenge all law enforcement to share information to protect their communities and reduce victimization to their citizens.
The summits are interactive and the attendees are actively encouraged to contribute their experiences and strategies in identity theft investigations, sharing both investigative barriers as well as success stories. The Summit will address a range of identity theft issues to include:
Key Note Speaker: Special Agent Wayne Ivey S.A. Ivey created Operation "LEGIT" (Law Enforcement Getting Identity Thieves). Wayne has 27 years in law enforcement and is an expert in identity theft. He supervised Florida's Identity Theft Taskforce and has handled in excess of 45 million dollars in fraud cases in two years. Wayne has testified on identity theft issues before the Florida legislature and the United States Congress.
Who Should Attend? The Summit is open to Chiefs, Sheriffs, Investigative Supervisors, Fraud Unit Investigators, Patrol Officers and Community Policing Personnel.

"The positive response from our summits has been overwhelming, and we are excited to continue to bring this important training to our law enforcement community across the country. By joining together and opening avenues of communication through information and education, we gain the ability to share effective policing strategies and connect identity theft cases from several cities and states to ensure that these criminals are brought to justice. It's refreshing to have a private organization like LifeLock recognize the need for this training and to support it across the nation." - Tom Stone, Executive Director of FBI-LEEDA
