Assemblymember Krekorian Hosts
Two Identity Theft Prevention Workshops
Glendale-Calling identity theft "an increasing, pernicious assault on
financial privacy and security," Assemblymember Paul Krekorian
(D-Burbank) announced he will host two preventative workshops in his
district that are designed to help constituents protect themselves from
the effects of this 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."
The first workshop is set for 7:00 - 8:30 p.m., Thursday, March 27, at
the Glendale Police Department Community Room, 131 N. Isabel Avenue,
Glendale. The second runs from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m., Thursday, April 17, at
the 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 Glendale workshop is being co-hosted by the Glendale Police
Department and the Los Angeles County Department of Consumer Affairs,
and the Burbank event by the Burbank Police Department and the
California Office of Privacy Protection.
"I very much hope that as many people as possible will take advantage of
these timely and important workshops," Assemblymember Krekorian said.
For further information, please call Assemblymember Krekorian's Glendale
District Service Office at 818/240-6330.
Assemblymember Paul Krekorian (D-Burbank) represents the cities of
Burbank and Glendale, and the Los Angeles communities of Atwater
Village, Los Feliz, North Hollywood, Silver Lake, Toluca Lake, Valley
Glen, Valley Village and Van Nuys.
