Kentucky Identity Theft
Kentucky law says that a person commits identity theft by using the identifying information of another person in order to to commit some kind of fraud, such as – among other things – obtaining goods and services. The statute itself is Kentucky Statute § 514.160. As with many other states, Kentucky law not only addresses the use of someone else’s personal information to commit a crime or fraud, but also trafficking (e.g., buying and selling) such information (Kentucky Statute § 514.170).
