Rare but heartwarming - catching your identity thief

[tellner]

A San Francisco woman chased and caught (http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/06/15/IDTHEFT.TMP) the woman who had put her through identity theft hell. Unfortunately, the ***** was on probation and got probation. So what's to stop her from doing it again?

Nothing people like that get away with everything and gets a slap on the hand.

Maybe she'll run across someone who won't bother turning her over to the law and extract blood...I've attended classes about ID theft for LE, and its scary...

Some laws may need to be changes so that identity theft is punishable and comes under federal quid lines
To me if someone steals my identity then they should get the punishment i say they should
