Government-issued identity cards and driver's licenses are getting ever easier to forge – and fake IDs are becoming ever harder to detect. Today's technology allows individuals to make very real-looking \"official\" IDs. There are more than 240 different types of state government-issued IDs in the United States alone! Every two seconds, someone's identity in this country is stolen – and 46% of all identity theft crimes are committed using a fake ID. Identity theft is not just a minor financial crime. Indeed, the two worst cases of domestic terrorism in the United States – the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 and the World Trade Center bombing in 1993 – were both committed by individuals using fake IDs. FBI statistics show that identity theft is a huge problem – and that's why it is so important that YOU know how to detect fake IDs.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCE Hours: 1.0\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Obsidian Security Training","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41980242198613,"sku":"CEIDVERI","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5092\/6677\/files\/Continuing_Ed__ID_Verification.webp?v=1766080941"},{"product_id":"continuing-ed-legal-aspects-of-private-security-2-hours","title":"Continuing Ed: Legal Aspects of Private Security (2 Hours)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdvance Your Security Career While Meeting License Requirements!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnhance your skills with our courses that count towards Guard Card license continuing education credits.
