Identity Crisis

Identity fraud feels as common as weeks devoted to some cause or other so it's hardly a surprise we find ourselves in the middle of National Identity Fraud Prevention Week. The messages are: guard your cards, shred, shred, shred and don't go giving out your deets and digits to all and sundry or leave personal documents hanging out your handbag. Residents of SE16 should be especially careful as Greenwich is currently the #1 hot spot for ID theft. You have been warned. (Image / Joe Pitz)
