Charlene Zettel Theft Quotations

California leads the nation when it comes to critical privacy protection laws. California law (Penal Code section 530.6) enables California residents who believe they have been victimized by financial fraud and identity theft to request a police report -- regardless of whether the crime was committed in the victim's location or somewhere else in the country.

Having civil and criminal identity theft penalties in place and continuing to inform Californians on how to prevent the theft of their personal or financial information will help stem this invasive crime.
