ALBANY, N.Y. — The New York Credit Union Foundation has launched a new grant-funded project, Who are You? Identity Thieves Really Want to Know!
With a primary goal of advancing consumer awareness through implementation of a statewide educational program and a credit union marketing campaign, the project explains ID theft and provides consumer tips, training programs and educational materials to members.
The Foundation will provide credit unions with a project tool kit including promotional materials for the marketing campaign, such as: posters, teller buttons, sample press releases, sample e-mail messages, sample newsletter articles, Web graphics and statement inserts.

Attendees will receive handouts on the prevention, protection and remediation of ID theft and cyber crimes.
