“I wrote the book because I’ve worked with victims and I’ve seen the aftermath,” she explains. “I’ve also seen the common habits that cause people’s identities to be stolen in the first place.”
She emphasizes that it is not just stolen credit cards that consumers need to worry about. Medical identity theft is also on the rise, which can lead to life-threatening repercussions.
By encouraging readers to think like criminals, Kerskie provides valuable, need-to-know information and action steps. The majority of her solutions cost little to know money.
“This book should make readers angry and want to take action,” Kerskie adds. “I want people to wake up to the reality of what’s happening, but give them tools to protect themselves and their families. I take away a lot of the hype and provide common sense solutions. A few small changes can make a huge difference.”
