✍️ Steve Simon's identity was stolen while trying to buy a car, and he received repeated notices of hard inquiries on his credit report, leading to a nightmare of auto loan fraud.
👉 Auto loan fraud is more common than you'd think 👉 60,189 claims filed in 2024, a 16% increase from the prior year 👉 21,446 reports of auto lease or loan identity theft in the first quarter of 2025 alone, up 71% from the same time last year 👉 Synthetic identities, which combine a real person's information with false information, are a growing problem due to generative AI 👉 The kind of identity theft that Simon experienced can have damaging effects on a victim's credit score, ability to borrow, and financial well-being
