Identity theft is on the rise in a big way. Credit.com co-founder Adam Levin says a lot of people will become victims during tax season. The Federal Trade Commission logged 400-thousand complaints of identity theft last year. That's a 32-percent increase over 2011. Levin says criminals are using all avenues, taking advantage of unprotected Internet connections and unlocked mail boxes alike. While consumers can take measures to protect themselves, Levin says it's simply impossible to completely prevent identity theft.
