Assemblymember Krekorian Hosts Second

Identity Theft Prevention Workshop in Burbank

Glendale — Assemblymember Paul Krekorian (D-Burbank) will host his
second Identity Theft Prevention workshop in his district which is
designed to help constituents protect themselves from the effects of
this ever increasing crime.

"Identity theft is one of our fastest-growing crimes," Assemblymember
Krekorian said. "Unfortunately it is likely that many of us know someone
who has been victimized. Identity protection begins with informed,
aware consumers, and these workshops will explain how to reduce
vulnerability to theft and what to do if you become a victim."

Event: Assemblymember Krekorian’s Identity Theft Prevention
Workshop

Time: 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.

Date: Thursday, April 17

Location: Buena Vista Library Meeting Room, 300 N. Buena Vista
Street, Burbank.

"I urge all to attend and learn how to fight the potentially ruinous
effects of identity theft," Assemblymember Krekorian said. "Local law
enforcement, state and county identity-theft specialists, will explain
how to avoid being a victim, how fraud happens, some of the various
scams now in use, and what to do if you are victimized."

The workshop is being co-hosted by the Burbank Police Department and the
California Office of Privacy Protection. For further information,
please call Assemblymember Krekorian’s Glendale District Service Office
at 818/240-6330.
