Identity theft and identity fraud are terms used to refer to all types of crime in which someone wrongfully obtains and WP s"KeE%|q
uses another person’s personal data in some way that involves fraud or deception, typically for economic gain.

The numbers associated with identity theft are beginning to add up fast these days. A recent General Accounting Office
*y-M(}4_.b$P9e
report estimates that as many as 750.000 Americans are victims of identity theft every year. And thai number may be low, :|7y@q/Sk)qFI"B
as many people choose not to report the crime even if they know they have been victimized.

Identity theft is "an absolute epidemic," states Robert Ellis Smith, a respected author and advocate of privacy. "It’s certainly N,}l&h4Dd.QO Mp(W
picked up in the last four or five years. It’s worldwide. It affects everybody, and there’s very little you can do to prevent it and,

worst of all. you can’t detect it until it’s probably too late."

In the United States and Canada, for example, many people have reported that unauthorized persons have taken funds 3YL6SYz5cj"?(w
out of their bank or financial accounts, or. in the worst cases, taken over their identities altogether, running up vast debts Yi'ui)aT
and committing crimes while using ihe victims’ names. In many cases, a victim’s losses may include not only out-of-pocket n{9U(?_.?A

According to Ihe FBI, identity theft is the number one fraud committed on the Internet. So how do job seekers protect 6fmy EzKMkcs5w
themselves while continuing to circulate their resumes online? The key to a successful online job search is learning to
7g0C7U)t\0h&\
manage the risks. Here are some tips for staying safe while conducting a job search on the Internet.
@qvR~BQ
1. Check for a privacy policy.
i `|ok1p:n Z
If you are considering posting your resume online, make sure the job search site you are considering has a privacy policy,
8d+Rb3W4G
l]%i3Yeev Q
like CareerBuilder.com The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be 7Uv}roV
shared. You may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information
ROcH4K3n#OBz
with others. You could be opening yourself up to unwanted calls from solicitors (4MB $ ).
(q$aV{t'o-fR7C
?
When reviewing the site’s privacy policy, you’ll be able to delete your resume just as easily as you posted it. You
;J'oT5z#V&IZC
won’t necessarily want your resume to remain out there on the Internet once you land a job. Remember, the longer YE/It,ya,}f:`
your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure, both positive and not-so-positive, it will receive.
;XPL.c K8z
2. Take advantage of site features.
,yctge(Gn o1I$s5h
Lawful job search sites offer levels of privacy protection. Before posting your resume, carefully consider your job search
b.r%J!SS]
objectives and the level of risk you are willing to assume. c1} |1`#o4e
CareerBuilder.com, for example, offers three levels of privacy from which job seekers can choose. The first is standard posting. I#]/S4kP:}]"x
This option gives job seekers who post their resumes the most visibility to the broadest employer audience possible.
2yO7X~:vA
The second is anonymous (匿名的) posting. This allows job seekers the same visibility as those in the standard posting `3Qy!J2`!Q-R~
category without any of their contact information being displayed. Job seekers who wish to remain anonymous but
,Al)K'J N9J
E N
want to share some other information may choose which pieces of contact information to display.
S3|!W:q{n j/z:E/RA
The third is private posting. This option allows a job seeker to post a resume without having it searched by employers.

Private posting allows job seekers to quickly and easily apply for jobs that appear on CareerBuilder.com without retyping their information.
