  • During the ITRC's first 10 years it was responsible for the passage of numerous laws in CA, TX, FL and federally to assist victims of identity theft, to toughen sentences for perpetrators, and to assist law enforcement in investigating cases. It worked with businesses, governmental agencies, law enforcement and other consumer groups to create open discussions about the problems created by identity theft to all its victims including credit issuers, businesses, consumers, and various agencies such as the DMVs and IRS.
  • In 2004, the Linda and Jay Foley received the 2004 Department of Justice National Crime Victims Service Award. They insisted that the award list the ITRC instead of their names. In 2000, ITRC receives its first grant from the California Consumer Protection Foundation.
