Course Description: This short class has been created from a variety of sources, and is intended to help YOU, a professional security officer, detect fake identification documents. Government-issued identity cards and driver's licenses are getting ever easier to forge – and fake IDs are becoming ever harder to detect. Today's technology allows individuals to make very real-looking "official" IDs. There are more than 240 different types of state government-issued IDs in the United States alone! Every two seconds, someone's identity in this country is stolen – and 46% of all identity theft crimes are committed using a fake ID. Identity theft is not just a minor financial crime. Indeed, the two worst cases of domestic terrorism in the United States – the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and the World Trade Center bombing in 1993 – were both committed by individuals using fake IDs. FBI statistics show that identity theft is a huge problem – and that's why it is so important that YOU know how to detect fake IDs.
