What Florida & Federal Law Say
Florida Statutes Section 817.568 and federal statutes like 18 U.S.C. § 1028 criminalize knowingly obtaining, using, or possessing another’s personal identifying information to commit fraud. This includes opening accounts, filing fake tax returns, or renting property. Prosecutors use credit reports, digital logs, and bank account histories to build cases—sometimes inaccurately.
Even a single fraudulent transaction can trigger felony charges.
