 VICTIMS WORKSHOPS

IDENTITY THEFT AWARENESS & PREVENTION SEMINARS

Regions: West, Mid-West, North-East, South-West, South-East

Our organization is proud to announce that we are in the process of developing offices in the five regions of the United States.

Proposed locations are as follows:

West:  Sacramento, California

Midwest:  Chicago, Illinois

Northeast:  Washington D.C.

Southeast:  Atlanta, Georgia

Southwest:  Plano (North Dallas), Texas

Our national, southwest regional and state organization will be based in Plano, Texas.  We are hopeful to eventually have offices in all fifty-states to combat the growing threat of "Identity Theft" (i.e., "Identity Theft Victims Support Group of Nevada, or "Identity Theft Victims Support Group-Northeast Region").

If you have a business organization (profit or non-profit) that would be interested in helping us to expand into all fifty-states, please contact us at:

Look here for times, locations, and dates of upcoming events in your area.

Our Awareness and Prevention seminars are usually held on Friday Evenings from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM.  We will also host a special Saturday morning seminar from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM.

These seminars are for both victims and non-victims.  If you have already become a "Victim of Identity Theft" and are planning to attend one of the "Identity Theft Workshops" , it is highly recommended that you also attend the "Awareness and Prevention Seminars".  This will give you the preparation tools necessary to help you recover from "Identity Theft" and also help you from becoming a victim again.

Cost for these three hour seminars are $30.00 to $50.00 and are based upon location and availability of meeting space.  Public support for the prevention seminars is needed in each host city so we can set aside part of the proceeds to host the "Identity Theft Victims Support Group Workshops".

This support will allow us to offer the 'Identity Theft Victims Workshops" FREE to all victims, because they have already paid enough.  Because of the nature of these seminars, individual victim stories will not be discussed during the question and answer period.  Pre-registration is required.  Seating for all seminars are based upon a First-Come, First-Serve.  Remember, No-Shows could prevent someone else from attending who really needs to be there.

Fees are non-refundable, so please, only register if you can attend.  On-line confirmations printouts (bring to seminar if you are transfering your reservation to someone else) will allow you to replace registered parties seating at the door.

"Identity Theft" strikes nineteen (19) new victims a minute in the U.S.  Please don't become one of the nineteen (19).

SPECIAL NOTE:  The above seminar times are  based upon a maximum of four-hundred (400) to five-hundred (500) attendees.  If local public support is overwhelming and to maximize coverage in host cities, we will host two time frames both on Thursday and Friday evenings:

5:00 PM - 8:00 PM     and    8:30 PM - 11:30 PM

If you have a civic organization or local company that wants to help sponsor these seminar's in your city, please contact our organization at:

  idtheftseminars@identitytheftvictims.us 

Due to Hurrican Katrina, all seminars outside of Texas will be rescheduled for two-thousand-six (2006).  All schedules for the Southeastern region of the country has also been postponed till 2006.

So, if you have an civic or business organization in the Southwest (Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma) or in the Southeast (Arkansas, Louisiana, Missippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia), that wants to host an "Identity Theft Prevention Seminar" and an "Identity Theft Victim Workshops" for your local community in January through March 2006, please contact us as soon as possible before our schedule becomes filled.  Thank You.   

IDENTITY THEFT VICTIMS SUPPORT GROUP WORKSHOPS

Look here for times, locations, and dates of upcoming events in your area.  Identity Theft Victim Workshops are held the same weekend as the "ID Theft Prevention Seminar's (Thursday and Friday Nights).  All workshops are conducted in a classroom setting and space is limited to a maximum of two-hundred (200) attendees.  These workshops are designed to help you get your identity back as fast as possible.

Workshops No. 1, No. 3, No. 5 and No. 7 are designed for "ID Theft Victims" who have had bank account, credit card account and drivers license information stolen.

Workshops No. 2, No. 4, No. 6 and No. 8 are limited to what we call, "Full Blown Identity Theft".  This is where "ID Thieves" have gained access to your credit files, social security numbers, and where "ID Thieves" have committed criminal acts using your name and you have been arrested for those crimes.

The following times are available on Saturday during the day:

Workshop No. 1      8:00 AM to 9:30 AM

Workshop No. 2     10:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Workshop No. 3       1:00 PM to 2:30 PM

Workshop No. 4       3:00 PM to 5:00 PM

These seminars are restricted to "ID Theft Victims Only".  We highly encourge victims to attend these workshops.  Depending on the severity of your "Identity Theft", it can cost you thirty (30) to eight-hundred (800) hours of your time over several years to recover.  If you have been hit with "Full Blown Identity Theft", out of pocket expenses could be Ten to Twenty Thousand Dollars ($10,000-$20,000).

SPECIAL NOTE:  The above workshops times are  based upon a maximum of two-hundred (200) attendees.  If local public support is overwhelming and to maximize coverage in host cities, we can add an additional four workshops on Sunday and/or increase class size to 300 attendees per session.

Plans are currently being set-up for January through March 2006 in several key cities in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.  Due to the effects of Hurricane Katrina and Rita, we will be eliminating the cities of Houston and New Orleans from our spring schedule of events.  We will update everyone when the situations change in Gulf Coast Region. 

April and May 2006 schedules are being planned for the Southeastern region of the country:  Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi.  So, if you have an organization in one of these eight states that wants to host these "Identity Theft Prevention Seminars" and "Identity Theft Victim Workshops" for your local community, please contact us as soon as possible before our schedule becomes filled.
